Others probably use know phases or known information such as pet/children/spouse names and birth dates with common combos.

So "#it$me47" is probably much less secure than "iliketoeatGreenapplesandbannan@s"

I think a study found an extraordinary amount of "guest" and "password123" being used in high levels of government.
