Avoid Getting Hacked: On Using Unique Passwords and NOT Sharing Personal Information on Social Media

It’s a long podcast and gets somewhat technical. But I still highly recommend this – you don’t need to understand the all the details. The takeaway is to be **veeeery** careful with financial, personal and cryptocurrency logins (usernames and passwords). If Two-Factor Authentication is possible, consider not using SMS/Text as your second factor. And NEVER use the same password for more than one account. Say it out loud: NEVER USE THE SAME PASSWORD!
