Why is a password manager a good idea? If someone gets the password to the password manager account, they have access to all my accounts.
EDIT: Thank you all for your input and advice. It it is greatly appreciated!

The advantage of using a password manager is that you can then use very strong passwords (16+ characters of gobbledygook) that you don’t have to remember, and use a unique password on each site/app/etc so if one is compromised your other accounts are still safe. Personally I use an offline manager called KeePass which runs locally on my machine and is not accessible from the net, so no one but me has access to my master password or database.
