Invested?  None, unless you count pre-orders with certain (alleged) ASIC providers, but as that was denominated in USD it doesn't really count I think.
I'm keeping most of my Bitcoins directly under my own control.
I have a handful sitting in certain exchange/wallet providers - but I don't really consider them to be 'invested' there, it's just a convenient (if slightly risky) place to store them.

I considered investing some on the GLBSE exchange a while back, but it folded up just as I was about to dive in.

Invested in some by buying and selling, invested some under %...but mostly just a couple of them.

I have upper 3-digit coins in my cold storage (offline) wallet, as well as have the other small amounts in the online wallets for daily transactions such as shopping, dice and donation etc.

Zero atm especially after the Pirate and Bitcoinica fiasco, which took away almost 600+ coins. Only have a small sum of coins at a few old lenders now. All coins in cold storage now.

And you don't intend to get more?
Personally i have a few but nowhere near enough.
With the recent PA, its starting to look like its not going into single digits again.
But at current prices, i can barely afford a few hundred.

I'm still mining and accumulating coins, which I don't plan to sell in the near future. I'm probably getting more afterwards. It's just that I'm not investing my Bitcoins, but I'm still invested in Bitcoins.  ;)

I get the feeling that people have interpreted this question in two ways.

I think he was asking how "invested" you are in Bitcoin. ie. How many Bitcoins do you have or have you purchased?

Related to this, there is a common illusion that you can put some kind of money 'into' a thing. But you can't, all you can do is divest yourself of one thing to gain another. The illusion is even stronger when the thing you are purchasing has a face value, but even a "That guy owes me 11 coins because I gave him 10" is not you having 10 coins 'in' him, it's you becoming no longer invested in 10 coins in return for being invested in a promise from a guy for 11 coins.

I'm making slow (but steady) progress towards my goal of accumulating 20999999 BTC.  

The leftover coin will be used to transact all world commerce.

Many of you are missing out I see. S.MPOE stock up 3000% since April 2011, not counting dividends. S.DICE owners up 56% since August 2011, counting dividends. S.BBET bought at 35 during IPO (yesterday), trading 60s now. On it goes.
