1Try something like FingerTips if you really want to. But it's not secure at all, so I suggest you use a password manager instead (e.g. Lastpass). – user416 Nov 3 '14 at 14:21

1If you use voice recognition software Dragon NaturallySpeaking (Windows/Mac, non-free), you can create a voice command to paste some text, it's straightforward to do. – Franck Dernoncourt Nov 3 '14 at 15:07
AutoHotKey
You can use AutoHotKey to bind any key combination to perform an action. In case of pasting text, you can use the Send command. Here is an example:
#g::Send p4ssw0rd
Save the above command in an ahk file and run. The hotkey Win+g now binds to the string p4ssw0rd. You can learn how to further configure the hotkeys in the tutorial
Note that this is not a safe way to store your passwords, since anyone using your computer could paste them in any text field.
