Have 300k but do not know what to do with it

[Jacob Branch]

I currently have 300k but recently lost my job. I have no income as of now and spend around 2 thousand a month in rent and other expenses (i.e. two months later I now have 298k left to invest). The money is not invested in anything. I am looking to either invest in real-estate or start a business. 

As far as my needs go: 

After 1 year: I would like to be making at least 75k per year, not work more than 35 hours a week, maintain enough mobility that I will be able to travel from my workplace to another city for up to 2 weeks before returning to my workplace. 

Any ideas would be much appreciated.
