Bitcoin Wallet question

[vonross2012]

I have been reading on how to keep your bitcoins.
As long as I have the wallet.dat file and the Passphrase I can't loose my money if i don't change the passphase?
Does it matter what wallet program is used?
I've gotten confused.  so many options.

Thanks, Ross

Hi mate and welcome.

I have been using online wallets for a while but am looking into more secure options.
