That's horrible if you ever become the victim of a targeted attack. Compromise your password once on some random shitty site and they've got access to everything.
It's also quite likely that incidents involving password dumps will have crackers filtering the dumped data looking for exactly passwords like this.
This will create individual passwords which is better than the same password everywhere. If it's the least they will do, it's better than not.
