Sorry to raise the password problem, but I see so many poor ones. At least add an uppercase letter to the end of every password you use to harden it. It is a long term project, just keep records and stay organized. Never just throw a password together.
Good luck.
DO

DON'T
- Use the same password for multiple accounts

- Use standard substitutions to create passwords
- Use a short password no matter how weird
