Best returns I have gotten, at least in reference to this thread, is through flipping websites.

I build a celebrity site a half dozen years back. It cost me around $3000.00 for the custom CMS, design work and the rest was just time and energy. I developed it for 18 months and sold it for $75,000.00. I have developed other sites for around the same or less and sold them for $6/10/25k after developing them for 9-24 months as well.

I was telling my old business partner about this back when I had sold the $75k site. I had asked what are some good offline investments (since he owned real estate, car washes, etc.). He told me that there is nothing in the real world (off line) that will realistically, moderate risk, get you returns like that in such a short period of time and that I should just keep doing what I am doing.

So I took his advice, and it's paid off nicely.
