Hey /g/ how often do you change your passwords?

I went on a big security binge about a year ago. Before that, I was using a fairly secure 14 character password, I was using it on every site. I ended up adding a unique word that couples it to the site. For instance, on my dropbox account I translated the word box to my native language and added it on the end.
I also enabled 2-factor authentication on all accounts that support it.
Now i'm sort of feeling the urge to change them all to longer, more unique diceware or randomly generated ones.
Is it recommendabe? Or just a waste of time..

>tfw I used the same password I use for everything
I had the same shit password for almost all of my accounts and now I have about 5.
One for emails.
One for buying accounts & subscriptions
One for Social Media
One for junk accounts or ones I don't care much about
Gonna start keeping track on paper all my accounts and passwords/emails used.
Just so I won't forget.

What do you all think about services like last pass where you can just have one master password and it stores all your other passwords and lets you use auto generated passwords.
I change my log-in passwords and my password database password about once a year.
Other than that, almost never. Maybe when there are potential compromises. Activity on anything that matters is carefully monitored, and I use different passwords for everything, leaving little reason for concern.
