In my world, as soon as everything is transferred to a password manager, it would be considered to be trash!

right - well prob just have 10 -15 things maybe in the manger and over 50 - 100 things in the book

an other idea occurred in background
to deal with this should I just take picture/s of book # and then trash it
(and just -
if ever was an old password? or go by feeling

I would put everything in the password manager, I see no reason to keep anything in a book...

Again, the password manager creates new passwords for you, the only thing you need to type is your username, which in many cases probably be your email address.

OK, so if I understand you correctly:

You have a lot of accounts/login for different services, such as email, bank, online stores etc.

You will keep using the ones you have, but register them with your password manager. When you start using the password manager, you change passwords for all login, and let the password manager create new passwords for you, which will be stored inside the password manager when you change password for each service. When you are through with changing and storing all new passwords, you won't need your book anymore.

Your password manager of choice will provide you with instructions on how exactly to execute this process.

are you saying I should just make new passwords - for things from book rather then try look back through it?

Yes, let the password manager create new passwords for you. It is capable of creating far better passwords than you and I are!

We all make our own choices. Personally, I would not keep login details in a book for several reasons, security and convenience being two of them.
This has been discussed earlier in this thread, and I don't believe that I have anything further to add to this discussion...

so if I'm angry I should destroy the book'

@TimBourne

Better to go for a walk ?

Best to safely walk and remain on the sidewalk . . . to avoid being struck by all types of moving vehicles, big and small; anger can be very 'blinding'/distracting

As you see GTD fit. . . .

"that I'm unsure to what degree of importance it is
problem of knowledge exactly for myself be able explain

Password managers are definitely the way to go. Pretty much any password that doesn't contain a mix of random characters is crackable. I started with KeePass, then moved to LastPass, and after LastPass had two serious data breaches I've renounced them and moved to Bitwarden, which I strongly recommend.

Data breaches are targeting the places where lots of people store passwords. Has absolutely NOTHING to do with being rich, only that you store critical data in a place you do not control. Which is one of many raesons I abhor cloud based systems and use them very sparingly and with lots of safeguards in place.
