Don't use the browser plugin "Store My Password" functionality and you're fine. They offer the feature as a tradeoff: lose some security in exchange for convenience. It's very plain and always has been that the master password is the "key to the kingdom" and the only place it should exist is in your head. Anywhere else and you've opened yourself up to attack of those secondary locations - your wallet, your home, your spouse, your browser, your phone, etc. Evaluate for yourself which of these you think is secure and which isn't. LastPass is so much of a win for the average user that even with this feature enabled, you are still better off than using the same username/password for every website which is the norm. This thread will be full of people recommending alternatives and there will be solid choices. I will keep using and recommending LastPass.
