My bank just gave me a random PIN number. Choosing my own was not an option.
I'd forget that so hard.
I used to be able to memorize random sequences of numbers when I was young, but my brain doesn't do that tedious shit any more.
Password manager is the way. It's recommended for all password related things anyway.
And good ones like bitwarden or keepass, not bad ones that get hacked almost yearly like lastpass
Man, I hope I don't lose that ability. Would be disappointing.
Maybe it was just because it was the time before smartphones and it was actually necessary to remember phone numbers, credit card numbers, account numbers, addresses, etc. All that is offloaded to a device now.
I still remember some old addresses, SSNs, and pre-Internet bank account details.

Hehe, I memorised all my family's phone numbers as a child. Do all children have devices now?
My family's "phone numbers" were just one phone number, because we had one telephone in the house.
From what I understand, most children do have devices now.
I was able to change it, but once I found out I had the random one memorized anyways and changing would've been even more confusing.
