QUESTION 1: HAVE YOU RETRIEVED ALL OF YOUR KEYS?

According to the objective rules, i have to retrieve all my keys so that my account can be safe and protected from hackers. The passward is in a way that you can't memorize it, rather you write it down and put it in a safe place that cannot be moved from, because if in any way you misplace it there is no way you will be able to log into the account. So i have so many ways or means i used to store my keys, in my diary, in my Gmail and uploading it to my drive.

The master passward is the ultimate/powerful key which can be used for an account. The key can easily be changed by pasting the key and penetrating a new one. The person who has access to the account should keep it in a very good and safe place, like saved in a PDF and google drive. The master key ensures that know one can penetrate into an account easily.
If an account want to be used, the other keys should be used to access the account instead of the master key itself.
