Just make a backup of the wallet.dat file located in

Windows: %APPDATA%\Bitcoin\
Linux: ~/.bitcoin/
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Bitcoin/

[whitenight639]

you can back-up the wallet.dat file if your using bitcoin-qt (the original satoshi client)

Or you can send your money to an online account like on blockchain or instawallet or mtgox or wherever.
