Unless you're actively spending your bitcoinsthey should always be in cold storage. I wouldn't recommend hardware wallets because you're still relying on someone else to not screw up.
Just remember to be your own bank and trust no one, then you're all set.

I use my hardware wallet for most of my investments and some in software wallets but that doesn't make my coins security tight. As it remains in the Blockchain and I have only the key access to it to save in my wallets. So, I just can assure that secured coins are not exchanged or traded without my consent.
Security will through 2FA password and you will not lost your password and other matter documents, the best is you should use Icloud of Iphone, when you export your account, after you lost phone, you will not afraid of lost information.

Of course no one knows my password to secure all of my tokens to my wallet. I did not trust my account anymore and maybe when I was awake one day I lost my tokens to my wallet.

Of course it must. If you not physically secure your coins, you may lose them later. for example i usually backup my wallet information in some storage.
Like flashdisk or hardisk, and keep them safe with my possession. Provide a deposit box if needed, then put your storage in the box.
If something bad happened like fire, flood, earthquake or others, your wallet backup will safe.

As I know it is very secure but I don't know why is it that the hackers can hack it easily. For those who have bitcoin they know already that their coin put it in very secure places.
Of course I do. I don't have a hardware wallet but I keep my coins offline on a drive that doesn't get connected to the Internet. If I ever need to use them I'll connect the computer, update the wallets and send everything to an exchange. That is if it goes down and I need to get rid of it. If it goes up i'll buy a hardware wallet to be even safer.
As prescribed: cold wallet + keys in the safe locations 
I keep mine in a Trezor wallet, with only small amounts on exchanges except when I might add more for a specific trade. I also use local bitcoin for fiat/bitcoin trades both ways, usually face to face transactions. Just think crypto is no different from, fiat if you lose your crypto/fiat or get robbed then it will hurt.
I sure do. At all times. Cold and paper wallets are must-have.
I always keep my coin safe, I always watch out for hackers, maybe in the future I can not be prevented, but maybe now I put the security is always on the top.
I am keeping my coins all in my wallet but I have keep my private keys or pw in a usb in which I am keeping it in my safe together with my passport and all important documents. I Don't just save it anyware. I have it also in my laptop but my laptop is secured and has password and I don't bring it anywhere so it is safe at home.
