Vanguard. Like VOO or VTWO - and once you have good savings in there, branch out to more divided payers if you'd like them to kick out some spending money. A 4-5% ARR is probable.

This would assume they are capitalized such that 4-5% ARR returns a living wage after capital gains. Most people don't reach this until their mid-50s or early 60s if they're lucky. Sometimes never.
