Fine, you think that costs you a lot? Do you know how much my Visa Infinite is gonna cost you?

When these random websites make you have a password of 'Uppercase' 'Lowercase' 'Number' 'Special Character'
Whilst Chase and Amex are fine with reg letters&numbers

And the worst part is that every single time I have to reset my passwords because I forgot that it needed those characters.

You should be using a strong password manager.

You should be using a strong password manager.
There are plenty of strong passwords that aren't impossible to remember

Well my pet peeve is the one time I tried to universalize my password by including a special character, and found many sited that don't allow such characters...
That's why this is the only conceivable solution

What do you mean universalize my password? Every password should be unique.

Not by me. If you know one password of mine you have access to my life and my wife's life.

I have the same password for all stupid accounts which I dont care for. Different levels of hardship for different types. In order of hierarchy:
Email gets a unique password
Banks/cc their own password
Anything which has cash value (airlines/points/miles) their own password
All the rest of the garbage- get the universal password

Using phrases makes for safer passwords which are easy to remember.

Let's say:
My mother in law behaves like a drunk horse at the track  - mmilbladhatt
DrunkH0rs3!
or my favorite password:

Worse yet are those site (like United.com new site) that has you list several security questions, many times none of them relate to me, and they won't accept the same answer across the board.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!
