>Documents and stuff are all in google docs/drive or something like that

There have been horror stories of people randomly loosing access to their Google account, probably because some automatic check decided that they violated some term of use. I see how convenient it is to work "in the cloud", but if those are important documents you should keep a local copy as well.

I have OneDrive sync both ways. Odds my machine is fried at the same time M$ decides they hate me is a risk I'll take.
Yes, and/or a second copy mirrored to a completely different cloud provider that has no dependencies on your main provider. (Including login dependencies!)
