I have bought a Nano S which is a hardware wallet.I think it's safety enough
Newbie's tips to Keep ERC20 token safe from hacker
They way i understand. You need ETH in your wallet to send any ERC20 such as trx,eos,bqx, as ETH is used as gas. Therefore if you have 0 ETH in the wallet you store you altcoins they cannot be stolen unless the hsckers put ETH in your wallet first. Which is unlikely.

Solid writeup. Apart from some typos, just two minor nitpicks:
myetherwallet can also be used in conjunction with hardware wallets, which is yet another step up from metamask
Nowadays third party antivirus software is turning out to be more of a liability rather than an improvement. They tend to install questionable root certificates and effectively MitM otherwise secure connections. All in all third party antivirus software increases your attack surface, so in most cases your probably better off using the antivirus software that comes out-of-the-box with your operating system (eg. Windows Defender in the case of, well, Windows).
It is also worth noting that against properly written, targeted attacks, most antivirus software is pretty much useless.
But apart from that, like I said, solid writeup.

To be fair, though, famous people get hacked because they are personally targeted and because they leave a lot of personal information behind even if they don't want to. The chances of me or you getting hacked randomly are pretty slim, specially if you don't click suspicious links and have a decent anti-virus/malware. Some of these articles exaggerate a lot. As long as you keep your coins in your personal wallet, you are pretty safe.
