How often should they be changed?

Never forced.  only if we are willing to change passwords.  

  I'd like to have an option to not change password.

  I have sooooooooo many passwords to enter, especially with work.

speaking of memorizing. Last summer I was listening to World Service and they interviewed the scottish man who invented the ATM. Orginally the pin number was going to be 6 digits because as the man put it "my army tag was that long". The problem was his wife couldn't remember 6 digit code, she could remember 4 digits. So over a course of dinner at the kitchen table one night. He agreed on 4 digits and the rest is history. lol

Call me lazy or forgetful, but I don't change my passwords unless they expire and the system makes me.
 
 I can enter many, many passwords and PINs on a keypad, but I wouldn't be able to verbally tell someone the numbers if I tried.  I'm not sure that I know the numbers myself...just the position/pattern on the keypad.

When the call comes in to say that they've stolen your identity and you need to change. Or you've lost your wallet. Whichever comes first.

oh, and another irritating thing about passwords is that you can't use the previous ones.  so, I couldn't use monday1, then monday2, then monday3, etc.  Oh, and the annoying thing is the amount of digits to numeric to caps to small to big or tall to wide or thin you need for a password

  BUT, I can see why passwords exist... *sigh*
