Preferred stocks for solid companies often pay 7-10% with definite payoff dates, just like bonds. So there is zero risk to your principal if you buy them at par, and a measurable loss if you pay a premium. But you know you will get your $25 face value or whatever when they are due as long as the company is still around.

Also much, much easier to trade than corporate bonds.
