at the very least a 25 digit alpha numeric string then use a program called Robo Form to remember the password and this is very important Don't hand out your Password to anyone. No password available means no stealing the account and with something so complicated they will be caught trying to hack the account long before that can manage to break the password.

Of course it goes without saying that no one can have access to your computer either but with Robo Form you can password protect the different Passwords that you are hiding. So if they break in they will have limited time to break the initial password and even if they manage to achieve this they will save any changes in Robo Form when they change your passwords so all you need do is go straight back in and change the passwords again to what you want.
