Um, password re-use is well-known to be a Bad Thing, especially if you're using the same password for gmail as for some seedy site you were curious about. It increases your security attack surface.

The all eggs in one basket approach exposes you to equal risks online, the minute that account's compromised they've got everything, and worse risks in the case that you leave yourself logged in somewhere.
