I have no faith in any so called "cloud" based Master password system, such as Ladtpass or similar, am I being paranoid ?
Paranoid? Difficult to answer that one. I suppose if it could be hacked then you might be in trouble. I use the Norton product because I like to think that Norton (of all people) would be very robust against hacking/scamming etc given their primary business.
There is another option - I only use two passwords, one is short and one is long. All I store on Norton's Identity safe are the words 'long one' or 'short one' - never the actual passwords themselves. Of course it does require you to remember two passwords which is sort of getting beyond the original brief of the question.
Why not write the passwords down and give them to a close relative or friend that you trust?
