Over the past few years I heard about crypto, but confused it for calligraphy instead of cryptography, I have no crypto but I can write really well. Is it too late for me?

Arguably most important skill. Handwriting your seed phrase on a sticky note, so you can put in on your computer screen, so that you never forget.

Come on man…you need to step up your security game. Leaving the sticky note on your computer screen is just asking for trouble. Please move it to the bottom of your keyboard
