7,002 BTC behind a lost password… and two attempts left.

Programmer Stefan Thomas received 7,002 BTC in 2011 for a promotional video, then lost the paper that contained the password for an IronKey drive. The drive wipes itself after 10 incorrect attempts, and reports said he used 8 attempts, leaving two attempts.

How do you balance protecting keys with the ability to recover them?
