Cameras, cameras.. Any suggestions?

(made by me)

So I'm on the hunt for a good quality Camera.

I had a nice Canon right after high school, 

but it died due to a party... Rip

I replaced it with a cheaper fix, a Kodak camera.

IT is the WORST!

horrible in low light, consistently grainy, poor focus...

I could go on..

I am trying to find an "investment piece".

A camera that is not going to let me down

and will last me, hopefully, the next 5 years+

Any suggestions?!? 

or experience with awful cameras

(so I know what to avoid)

I would love to hear your thoughts ♥
