I'm very close to backing out of this whole thing too (atleast until rapid, user-friendly, trustworthy Bitcoin services come online).

I've been too afraid to buy a single mBTC because of all the stories of hacking and scams I've read on here.

It's just a whole new system of things to understand. You learn one thing, then you learn another, start small, and work your way along. In the beginning, people didn't think anyone would buy anything off of the internet, there was a while where Amazon was in the balance, as a business, and look at it today? Cryptocurrency is just starting. There's no pressure to learn everything this instant. Do what you can, learn as you go, start small and work your way up. You'll be miles ahead of everyone, a couple years down the road.
