I started this thread asking if there was a better solution that memorizing
5-10 passwords and using some variable of a throwaway for the majority of
everything else, and I'm still not convinced that my method isn't the best
outside of just hard memorizing a unique password for every site.
When I was younger, I had only 5-10 important accounts and I memorized unique passwords that I thought were strong. Now I have many more important accounts, including four brokerage accounts, several bank accounts, half a dozen credit card accounts, two domain registrar accounts associated with tens of thousands of dollars worth of domains, etc. I have a separate computer that I only use to access these important accounts, and my passwords for these accounts are stored in KeePass, which allows me to have unique passwords with 200+ bits of entropy.
I prefer my current setup more than my old setup.
