If you own an email account, a facebook and twitter account, or a credit card or paypal account, there is a possibility it can be hacked.
A website called How Secure Is My Password gives you an idea how easy or how hard it will be to hack your password.

I tried my password and found it won't be cracked in 2000 years.
Two things to consider if your password is weak or can be easily hacked is:
1. Use a combination of uppercase and lowercase letters and numbers and/or special characters for your password. i.e. Abc123@Def (this takes about 42 years to crack)
2. Change your password often to limit the risk of your accounts being hacked.
How Secure Is My Password safety features: The site runs inside your browser through JavaScript and therefore your passwords won’t be transmitted anywhere while you are checking their relative strength.
