I use the Google Two Factor and also use LastPass password Store (with a
YubiKey) to access my passwords. I've been using this combination for
almost a year and, at this point, would never go back to something less
secure.
While not totally immune to hacking, I have significantly upped the
difficulty it would take to get hacked. My passwords are a minimum of 12
characters/numbers/special characters and, for the most part, I don't even
know what they are. I have LastPass generate them and track them. My
LastPass repository is secured with a Yubikey (usb key) that I have to have
along with my password to allow access into that account.
As long as I don't do anything stupid, I am fairly safe from hacking.
