I also don't have any security tool in my current old Android Mobile (Sony Xperia S + Android 4.1.2), but of course I don't use it to do banking, shopping or any other online activity where I have to use any of my bank accounts...

No, you surely aren't crazy for not having an AV on Android, the malware problem on Android isn't that severe yet to mandate the presence of an AV on every android phone. However you might want to install an anti-theft on your phone, like Google find my device or Cerberus if you feel the need for them.

Marshmallow (Android 6.0) should be out for your LG G3. I have a G3 as well and I'm on Android 8.1 Oreo but that takes root and other tricks.
