Password Hell

I change my Google PW because it wouldn't accept my old PW. An email congratulates me for recovering my account. Five days later I try reaching my blog and am told the new password is incorrect. I have to have them call me for a verification code to make sure I am me. Once I type that in and click Next I get another message indicating I am verified.
Today I discover Facebook has been hacked again to the tune of 270 million members having their info on the Dark Web all week, available to hackers. Is any of this aggravation worth it? Phony emails from banks and Paypal and bogus charities that look genuine.
I feel sorry for people who store their life on their phones. The more I try to simplify my life, the more complicated things get.
