I used to think password managers were a bad idea until my bank account got hit

For years, I kept all my passwords in a notebook, thinking it was safer than putting them all in one digital place. Then someone got into my email and drained $500 from my checking account because I had reused a simple password. I switched to Bitwarden after that and haven't looked back. Has anyone else made a big security change after getting burned?

Ever try a password manager before getting hacked?

Wait you got hacked because you weren't using one? That's wild lol. My cousin had the same thing happen and it was a huge mess. Honestly can't imagine keeping track of all those passwords myself anymore. Feels like asking for trouble.
