I keep seeing people say use a password manager and call it done

Visited a coffee shop in Austin last month called Buzzed & Bytes. The owner had a single sticky note under the register with all his login info for the POS system, email, and even his banking. He said password managers are too complicated for a small shop and he's been fine for 7 years. I get his point about simplicity but that one note could ruin his whole business if someone grabs a photo of it. Anybody else run into small business owners who refuse to use anything but paper?

Actually paper's probably safer than you think, a sticky note under a register is way less likely to get hacked than any online service. What's the worst that happens, someone swipes a photo while 30 people are watching them take it?
