Passwords aren’t a big deal? You know because you were in tech? That’s so not true! Passwords are your 1st offense against cyber crimes. Decades ago, you didn’t have 2FA, and a lot of people probably don’t use it today which everybody should.
All passwords should be over 16 characters long, with 1 or 2 special characters like @,%,$,!, a couple uppercase letters, and you should not use the same password for more than 1 login. If you follow this, it will take over 100 years for a program to decipher it.

Just a moment...

Fidelity, Schwab, vanguard, Morgan Stanley, and others are all secure. I’ve used all of these but only use 1 of them now. If you are transferring funds monthly, you should setup an automated schedule to perform these transfers automatically. What happens if you get in an accident and in icu, does your wife know how to transfer? What happens if she’s in the accident with you? Automate! If you know your paying $10,000 in taxes in December, put in the request to transfer money months in advance.
