    Use a password manager. Then you can not only use extremely long nonsensical passwords that look totally random strings of characters, it will remember them for you, and tell you when you have re-used a password, prompting you to change it.

    I use LastPass, and set my password length to over 60 to 90 characters, at-at random choice, for each site.

    NO,
    but changing passwords occasionally is always a good idea. When a site asds you to do so it's an even better idea.

    May have to do two-factor or even three-factor authentication like the banks. Enter your password. Then must answer a personal question "Which LSA did you use in your very first custom grind?"

    I changed mine to something I couldn't remember if you held a gun to my head. easy passwords are a piece of cake for the hackers to figure out. there needs to be symbols, brackets, numbers and letters and about 20-40 characters long

    I hate fucking passwords. Every site wants a damn password. And they get stolen from the password manager sites, too. I don’t trust any of them, can’t remember half of them if I don’t use them regular, get tired of trying to think up something that I forget as soon as I walk away. If I don’t show up, it’s because I forgot my damn password. Again.
