I do the same thing but use KeePass’ password generator to create the answers. My mother’s maiden name will be something like “diejdJyt7ejHsud”

I do that as well, but I dread the moment I'll have to call support through no fault of my own and they'll ask me for the answers to some of these questions.

Just say, "it's a jumble of letters and numbers but I lost the USB drive where I stored all that stuff."

Most of these systems still use people who have quotas to meet, and can see all of your account details in some sort of admin panel.

I mean, probably anyone could call and start reading off the letters from "correcthorsebatterystaple" and the support tech will go "oh yeah, you're one of those people who thinks they're clever with security; here are all your account details"
