Haven't written them anywhere too. I have observed that if you use passwords often you remember them very easily (even if they are totally unrelated and not bound to the website name) Yodlee takes care of all my financial transaction passwords…or others I use a system similar to yours for remembering: using the name of the website itself with a common phrase, makes them unique and strong.

The more sensitive the website (bank/brokerage account, primary email), the more likely the website has a unique password which is not shared. I store my websites/passwords in a text file on my hard drive, and encrypt the file using open-source encryption. On Windows, I use AxCrypt. On Mac, I use the unix command ccrypt. I also use these open-source encryption programs to encrypt any file on my hard drive which contains sensitive information, such as social security numbers, bank account numbers, PDF copies of tax returns, etc. If one of my backups or my computer is compromised, those files are encrypted with a very strong password, allowing me time to modify account numbers, etc. The identity theft which as effected me is simple mail fraud (stealing of a phone bill out of my box and buying a phone card with that info) and credit card fraud (someone somewhere wrote down my numbers). Additionally, I rarely write checks, as those clearly state my accnt number and ABA, giving someone easy access for direct withdrawal.
