Reply to comment by Prunestand in Wondering how much money it would take to crack a passphrase? I found this very useful calculator that calculates just that. by Prunestand

I know, just a scary thought, roughly about the odds of me existing.

Actually, thinking about it, there's more entropy in my DNA than your password, and we've not even got to the Earth existing, yet here I am.

More information is more entropy. A novel has more entropy than a haiku. You are a password that took 13.7 billion years to crack. Expensive there you are.
