Because you do not already have the security and system administration
expertise and experience to KNOW the answers, then for you, the answers
to your three questions are:

 (1) "NO, this is not a sufficiently secure system for you".

 (2) "NO, this is not a supported LTS release".

 (3) "The main risks are not getting updated software, and so getting
     hacked or infected or otherwise running malicious code".

That's as simple a set of answers as I can give.

Ubuntu desktop at home, which I tried and failed to upgrade to 12.04
recently -- I need to fix that ASAP!).
