Firstly, yuo shoul be careful with online services. You should be wary of any service designed to store your money online. Many exchanges and online wallets suffered from security breaches in the past and such services generally still do not provide enough insurance and security to be used to store money like a bank

I use paper wallet

Bitcoin paper wallets are safe against hackers as the bitcoins are brought offline.
Users have control of their bitcoins at all times as they keep own private keys.
The problem, however, is storage. Paper can be destroyed, torn, fade or otherwise lost.
Unlike hardware wallets, there is no recovery mechanism for paper wallets – so lost bitcoins are lost forever. This is something you need to keep in mind if you want to use this option.

I agree, online wallets do not provide enough security. By the way, only General Insurance (https://generalinsurance.com) cover my back. They're cover everything.
