I only prefer you to use hardware wallets if you have already have a lot of cryptocurrencies on the internet. It is because no money is safe in the internet from hacks and other things that can cause sabotage. I do not use one since I am running low in crypto as for now and I don't like to hold coins as well. For the mean time, if you want to buy a hardware wallet think of it as a form of investment that will later on grant you assurance.
