Hi again  Grin

Right due to my paranoia I didn't feel I was safe with Bitcoin core so after downloading the offline bitaddress.org page from Git-hub Rep I dumped it into an USB key and turned my old computer on in the garage (no WiFi card or network at all) from there I created a paper wallet that I printed.
Now my problem after that was how do I check my balance and how do I use it to pay into it without having to take it out or carry it with me?
I created a blockchain wallet and from there I was allowed to add a "watch only" address, now I will never use my paper private key on line till the day I want to cash out,  hopefully in a few years, so my main question is how safe is my money? Can I keep paying into my paper wallet as much as I want/can? Have I taken the right steps or did I make any mistake It might cost me later?

Thanks in advance for your replies!!
   

Tackling how to work with exchanges is my next step if there's no major security breaches in what I've done.
Grin price seems to be falling

You can always check your balance through any blockchain explorer like blockchain.info
