As been discussed many times before using a Brainwallet is a bad idea.

I disagree, I have never lost anything from a brain wallet but I have lost quite a few coins from failing hardware wallets and dying hard drives.
I get you stand on this and maybe the introduction was a bit too short on the subject. As always there are exceptions to the rule and if you manage to remember a brainwallet with high entropy and also using some personal knowledge (like a salt) it becomes a lot more secure. Let's just hope you want suffer from a dying brain instead of a dying hard drive! Smiley
