[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1670204"] I use 1Password, but LastPass and Dashlane (et al) are all more or less as good. Mostly I use the built-in iCloud keychain, since it works across devices (as does 1Password, but a touch more awkwardly). I really like the way iCloud Keychain will suggest a strong password and store it in one smooth step. If you use Safari on the Mac, this is probably the best one by virtue of being built in. If you want a password manager that does more, or works across platforms, then you probably want 1Password. It often goes on sale, so watch for that before buying -- but get a password manager as soon as you can. More and more sites won't accept "simple" passwords, some demand that you regularly change passwords, and in short the strong passwords you can't really memorize are the way to go, necessitating a password manager of some kind.
