In summary: HotmailYahoo Mailalumni mailwork emailAmazonTargetWalmart . . .The list goes on...I probably have 50 active accounts - many being unimportant and where I also don't care as much if stuff gets stolen in them.But, yeah, 5 accounts ...out of 100's? ...over 10 years isn't as bad as it might first sound. What WAS extremely bad was forgetting it literally 12 hours later. On a positive note: I worked through maybe 75 or so variations and FINALLY figured out my password!

I keep all my passwords written in a small book, which I keep in my pocket. The probability of the book being stolen is so small as to be insignificant, since any thief would be targeting my wallet and/or phone, rather than a book.
More likely is that you will forget to take it out of your clothes pocket one day, and it will end up going through the clothes washing machine... :oops:

How about writing them on your underpants in Sharpie?
