It might be a pain if someone found out my username and password to online forums such as these, but I'm really only concerned about someone hacking into my email account & banking / investment accounts. I'm thinking of buying an inexpensive Chromebook and using it EXCLUSIVELY when I need online access to my Fidelity & Vanguard investment accounts & the crypto/bitcoin exchanges I'm on. I would not use it for email or to log on to any other website, but again use it solely for online access to my investment accounts.
I'm considering Chromebook because a) they are cheap, and b) because I've been told that they are very basic computers with very little memory and are therefore very hard to hack & aren't very susceptible to malware. If anyone here is knowledgable about Chromebooks and whether or not they would be good for what I'm proposing, I'd appreciate feedback.

Do you have the two-step verification turned on for your Vanguard and Fidelity accounts? If so, someone with your username and password cannot log in to your accounts without access to your cell phone. My cell phone requires my fingerprint to unlock it.
