Question Investing in today's markets? What to do?

This is purely hypothetical, and something to think about. I'd really appreciate hearing what all you folk's would do!

Let's say for example that someone had $10,000, $20K, or $30K more or less in a savings account/CD/bond, et al, at say 3-4-5% interest (fixed or variable), should he/she:
a. wait out the markets and leave it alone for the time being,
b. re-invest it in metals (gold, platinum, palladium, silver, copper),
c. cash it in and put it in your safe deposit box or under your mattress,
d. or what??

I know that certain specifics regarding exact and fixed or variable interest rates are strong determinants, but just take your pick of the above, or better yet, offer some other creative ideas! Thanks in advance!

ps- wish I had such a dilemna!!
