Shit happens...
As much as i enjoyed all those "lost my bitcoin in a boating accident" stories, i am going a bit desperate at the time.
Before i went for vacation in summer, i took my ledger wallet, all hand written seed lists and auth backup keys and hid them in secret places.
After 11 days, when i came back home, i realized that i didn't remember where i put the stuff. The ledger was stored away from the seed lists and keys.
Yesterday i found the keys and stuff, but i still had no luck finding the hardware wallet
I hope to intuitvely remember where i put the leger, because i like to consolidate my DCA'd Sats from time to time, not to keep them for too long on exchanges.
Sometimes brainstorming helps, but until date i had zero successful outcomes with it.
Don't get me wrong, there are quite some positive aspects of having a weak memory, for example you aren't able to keep bad feelings after arguing with close people for longer, forget about negative things that are on your mind, or all the events that made you having a bad day... but at times it really sucks to be me
First, my regrets for your loss in terms of using a ledger... and even having the balls to admit it.. .. hahahahahaha.. so yeah.. I agree.. sucks to be uie pooie, but for different reason than the ones that you stated.
Second, if you cannot remember where the ledger is, then how would you feel comfortable that someone might not have had gotten ahold of it, which would trigger a need for you to move all your funds to a new seed.
Third, yeah there's gotta be a way to make sure that you do not forget your secret hiding places.. and some of us might have some similar complicated ways of having to get at our back-ups.. and even some other strange ways of storage in which the details of which pieces are needed could result in loss of funds if all of the pieces are not put back together in the right order... so I surely have some sympathy in terms of a lesson to be NOT making our set up any more complicated than it needs to be.. but we still have to make it complicated enough that the evil maid or any other previously seemingly "good" person might not end up being curious regarding "how much value might be connected with this information".. which surely is a risk with anything that is written down and is in one place rather than multiple places.
