allegedly ok but you can run the gui / cli wallet connecting to a remote node quite safely as well. no need to run a full node.
I guess you learn something new every day. I'll look into that instead, I didn't realize you could do that.

Get a ledger nano s and they have monero wallet inside. Physical wallet is very safe if you have too much monero. ...
For now a combination of software wallets and cold paper wallets are working for me, so I really don't want to put down 50ish dollars for something I don't need. Like I said, I really don't have enough to bother with a cold or hardware wallet (I know, words of somebody who will later be upset that he lost it), but I'm holding for the long term so I figure that I'll get it on a wallet that I control the private keys.
