Screen protectors, skins, case, pouch... How do you do it?

Hello,

I have a new phone and it looks awesome, so awesome I am afraid to ruin it.
I have been looking in accessories that help keeping the phone scratch-less and prevent it from breaking due to falling on the ground.

I've seen there are many things out there:
Screen protectors, made of plastic or tempered glass.
Transparent skins that stick to the phone sides and back, glossy and matte.
Clip on cases, soft, rigid or clam-shell designs.
Pouches, genuine leather, faux leather or cloth.

How do you protect your phone?
In your opinion, is it worth it?

Personally I am planning to buy a tempered glass screen protector and a faux leather pouch.

I only had my previous phone fall once and it came out of it with a small scratch. I would not compromise the comfort of holding it naked in my hands with a clip on cover.
The gorilla glass II my previous phone had got scratched once, although it was a small scratch I felt bad about that every time my finger would slide on it, it also compromised the resale value.

How would you protect your new device?
