TIL I was basically handing out my password by using the same one for my bank, email, and that old forum from 2012.
A notification from 'Have I Been Pwned' about that old forum breach finally made it click that a single leaked password from anywhere can unlock everything else.

The real kicker is how many of those old forum databases are just floating around now. I read a report last year that said over 24 billion username and password combos have been leaked total. A password manager feels like a hassle at first, but it's the only way to make each login truly unique.
