I think of passwords in 3 tiers:

1) the Netflix tier where my wife and in-laws are going to be sending it around insecurely and I don't really care what happens

2) the Random Bullshit tier where I really can't be bothered to remember another password

3) the Google and Financial tier where it's going to be a nightmare if it's compromised

The largest set is (2), and having a password manager for this one is extremely useful. I've tried prefix and mnemonic systems, but it can be a real hassle if it turns out you need to only use it a couple times a year and have to adapt for dumb character and length requirements. Having a manager for (1) is great too since I'm probably using it on multiple devices.

I don't put passwords from (3) anywhere and their knowledge will die with me.
