Short term parking of a large inheritance?
Safe short term and "pay almost nothing" go hand in hand.  Anything that is safe for the short term will not pay much in interest/appreciation. If you don't know what to do, putting it in a savings account is the safest thing.  The purpose of that isn't to earn money, it's just to store the money while you figure out where to move it to earn money.
