I am using three flatform to store my bitcoins,blockchain for all my transaction,yobit for buying alt coins and of course electrum wallet as a desktop wallet,you should not put all your eggs in one basket,bitcoin is an investment a very good investment ,every bitcoin we have now is precious as the price could go up in the future..
same with me. I keep some bitcoin in different places, not in one wallet, really what you say, it is very risky if storing in one container, if we hacked all our money will be lost

I keep everything I have except 0,03BTC in my Electrum wallet. These 0,03BTC are stored in my YoBit account.
I store my savings in cold storage and some amount in blockchain 
1 Hardware wallet
1 Hot wallet (Core)
and 1 another Hot wallet (Mobile Phone)

I hold my bitcoins online at Coinbase. Even seems not secure in the first view this is only an impression and not a fact. Seems that the online wallet are the less secure but if read all the data given about this matter offered by Coinbase understand the right meaning that the word "secure" has for this business. I am writing some. First must be told (even this has nothing to do with the security but with your pocket) all the fee-s of the sent of bitcoin are paid from Coinbase. Then they store 98% of customer funds offline. Offline storage provides an important security measure against theft or loss. They distribute bitcoin geographically in safe deposit boxes and vaults around the world. And at the end (for more you can go yourself at their website) Coinbase is insured against employee theft and hacking in an amount that exceeds the average value of online bitcoin it holds at any given time. Specifically, Coinbase's insurance policy would respond in the event that bitcoin stored in Coinbase was lost or stolen as a result of a breach of our physical security, cyber security, or as a result of employee theft. Coinbase has held this insurance since November 2013 with highly rated carriers (S&P rating of A+ or A.M. Best Rating of A XV or higher).
I dont have that much, so i just store them on Exhange websites, like Bitstamp or Kraken. I also have MultiBit HD as a desktop walllet.
I store all my wallet.dat files in like 10 different USB sticks offline. I have been doing this since the very first time I started with Bitcoin. It's the best option for me. It is quite time consuming updating each wallet file since I have so many and they need to be stored on all sticks again. Better safe than sorry.
Blockchain.info for smaller ammounts, Electrum wallet (under linux) for gathering all my incomes. When my assests will (hopefully 
) reach significant value I am going to develop something more secure method, maybe paper wallet.

I store mostly on paper wallets and multiple online wallets (In which only 2 of them have been posted publicly and others are kept as a secret due to security purposes). Also a little bit of earned BTCitcoin on mining websites (reputable one's only).
Paper wallets seem a lot more risky for me as i would have to physically protect it unlike having a bitcoin wallet on my drive protected by passwords.
I have a laptop that when turned on, will ask login password before a user can see run my multibithd wallet.. I don't have much btc so I don't think they'd live a comfortable life if they got my btcs.
in a usb plus i'm planning to build a dedicated mini server for bitcoin core, so i can support the netowork and have a secure hot wallet, on which i can plug my usb
obviously i'll run exclusively only the client and nothing else

It is risky but you can certain small amount kept on exchanges.
Why is that good? You can react fast if dump occurs or wait for alts to wake up like Dogecoin recently

Just dont get goxxed. Only keep on the exchange what you would use for trading. If you dont controll the private key, they are not your coins, but a mere promise from someone you probably dont even know.
All those manipulations can increase your holding at the end.. Why not take advantage of that?

Just do not keep all eggs in one basket

I use a mixture - I have some paper wallets stored in a safe
I have a few bitcoin on my main computer using elctrum wallet
I have .4 ish bitcoins on my Iphone
I have almost a bitcoin on blockchain.info
I figure its good to spread it around (it helps me sleep safer at night)

This could be the best answer... and also stake some little amount in exchange for fast buying / selling for fiat/other crypto
