My password manager password has been the same for years, and is like 30+ characters long. All my passwords since I started using it are random ass strings of letters, numbers and symbols. It's great.

My work windows password that needs changed every 3 months? Guess who's on [SIMPLE PASSWORD]8! and about to change to [SIMPLE PASSWORD]9!?
