I do believe that this is a sign that technology is making us dumber. As I only know one other phone number besides my own myself. 😆
 
Beside my home, my work, and my mother's numbers, not much else.

Might be a good idea to remind people (and myself) to have a backup list of people's phone numbers in case you lose your mobile phone.

Pin numbers? Unless you are foolish enough to use the same easy number for everything the PIN numbers can get confusing and it's hard to memorize the number in obscure accounts.

I still remember phone numbers. Credit card numbers, bank account numbers, license numbers, passport numbers, VIN numbers, serial numbers, even the serial numbers on every bill in my wallet etc

When I was a kid I memorized the Toledo white pages.

I can quickly memorize a deck of cards. So you definitely don't want to play poker against me.

I first learned memory tricks from...
