My advice is to create a word document with your passwords and which programs or sites they are associated with.

You don’t want your Crypto currency to be inaccessible to you because you thought you would remember the 15 digit randomized password, do you?

NEVER keep a master list of passwords on your computer if said computer has internet access.

Better to keep such lists on a piece of paper in a safe place, but NOT on an internet-accessible computer.

I’m a pencil and paper guy myself. But if you’re going to use a word document, disguise your passwords. Perhaps make the first two characters not part of the password.

For example, if your FR password is 562happy, record it as 27562happy.
Make any hackers work a little.
