The comment I was replying to was about physical paper copies, not emails.
Distributing digital copies of your password store to your friends and relatives could maybe work. Be sure you're using a really strong password (that you can also remember by heart), because you cannot trust each friend will store the file responsibly away from prying eyes.
Remember the scenario:
- You lost access to your recovery codes and any handwritten notes, so you better remember the master password by heart.
- But this master password better be really strong, because each of your N friends you distributed your files to is a potential leak to hackers and thieves.
- (Tangentially related: remember you have no authenticator either, so your password store better include recovery codes, otherwise without 2FA you're screwed)
