My routine has been pretty simple. 30$ Of btc per week on coinbase where I am also storing it. How safe am I? What else do I need to do protect my btc. I know I'm not getting a massive amount, but ya never know.
Coinbase is the only place that I ever stored much BTC on and had no problem. All the other places I would have an ulcer if I had 10 cents in their wallets.

I recommend getting a new laptop with a good virus program and only use it to store and send BTC. Use Bitcoin-Qt. And if you are really serious use the Armory program.
