I've probably got 50 passwords presently. I've been thru the kids' names and the grandkids' names and the dog and cat names. Now I'm into nicknames.
And I'm not dumb enough to keep them on my computer in Microsoft Word. I've got the passwords on a piece of paper and it's kept in my safe.
Now if I could just remember where I put the combination to my safe, I'd be in good shape.
I think you posted before that you wrote the combination down on that piece of paper with your passwords. Does that help?
Anyhow, as I've posted before, I have two 'keywords', a prefix and a suffix, that I add to the password I have written down. Since my keywords are not written down in the same place, and are easy to remember, I am very safe saving these 'partial passwords' in an un-encrypted file, or leaving a list printed right by my computer. The 'keywords' are something like "APPLE123" and "zebra789". So the password I have written down for my local bank is "-lclbnk$-", and that is all I need to know that the real password is "APPLE123lclbnk$zebra789".
