I spend a lot of time hunting down
my passwords. I’m on this site or that site and it seems I need a password in
many instances. I tried to keep it simple. I have one password for my business
affairs, and I have a different password for personal matters.
Somehow the situation has gotten
away from me. I had to change a password ever so slightly here and there to
fulfill the requirements of the site. The password required a number or capital
letter, something stupid like that. My email was hacked once and I made a
subtle change to my password to get the hackers off my back.
Now I have so many subtle variations I can’t remember what’s what. I suppose I
could make a password chart and hide it somewhere, but that’s evidence should I
ever get robbed or violated in anyway. If I’m away from a site too long and I
check in month’s later there’s a pretty good shot I’m not going to remember my
password, so I find myself hunting down the password, resetting them, or
answering questions about my childhood. So far I’ve remembered to answer the
questions about my childhood correctly, but I foresee a day when I start to answer them wrong.
