There is hardly anything more secure than writing a password on paper and storing it in a safe. Hell, a password on a post-it on your desk at home in plain view isn't all that bad in most situations.

I constantly recommend the use of password manager and unique credentials everywhere (to prevent cred stuffing attacks). I always get feedback from friends/family that they worry about forgetting the password to the manager. I tell them to write it down and put it in their safe. And it always results in a deer-in-headlights response. They've been told for years to NEVER write down a password.
