I suggest using a few dollars worth of coin and take it through its paces so you get used to what you have to do. Once you get the idea and can transfer a few dollars easily, you can make a special, very secret paper wallet to hold more money. Once you are familiar with how the paper wallet works, you should create your really secret private keys using the offline method they suggest at walletgenerator. I store my paper wallets in my home family safe. If you lose the paper wallet, you lose the money so take great care to store it away from damage. The special secret key must never be sent over the internet until you are ready to clean out the account. I have a video coming on how to do this. I call this the bitcoin savings account.
