Keeping up with different passwords is such a headache. We have
passwords for everything. I cannot memorize all
Of mine because I have too mamy.

I agree. the passwords I use on a daily basis I don't have a problem with. but the ones I use less frequently drive me crazy! Now I understand why there are apps and things to store your passwords. I haven't dare to try those yet. :pumpkin: :pumpkin: :peace: :wave:
Be grateful for what you have and you will receive more than you ever expected

If you believe it you can achieve it.

I use Fire Fox. They store passwords. I have had it for years for sites like cooking sites, garden blogs etc that I really don't worry about.

No problems.

I do not store credit union passwords/security questions, or other sites like PayPal. I will never store stuff like that.

I have a personal record of those, if I forget.

Not only that but a lot of them you have to change every 3 months or so.  And they say don't write them down.  How the heck can you remember them all?

I don't have a problem remembering the passwords that can be simple.  It's when they have to contain a capital letter, number and symbol.   I do have a small notebook where I started writing them down.  I keep it in my house.  Not worried about anyone seeing it.

I use Chrome and it's pretty good about saving my log in information; however, I still have a strategy for saving passwords.  Worse case scenario - I might forget and need to reset one.

Have a great day!

  I know what you mean. The best way to handle this annoying problem is printing your login information, for each account you have. Or use a common password for all your accounts. In case they ask you to change your password, use your second best choice.

I just write mine down and keep the dated paper in the house because I change them often.  A few I know.

"Last Pass" can help with that.

I know how that could feel. You should save them with contact info connected to them on a mobile device. That's what I do when I need such a strong password.
