I am also pretty heavy on the cash - I wonder what that says about the many value investors (or investors in general) that are in a similar situation who have either sat out the past few years or have been building a cash pile as of late and possibly the consequences.

OT: I also struggle with being a younger single guy and managing my growing cash position from my professional life. I have spoken with a few of you in the past few years privately ( and a special public thanks to EKS for always answering my questions trying to guide this directionless boat - just a true wealth of wisdom and a gem to be a loyal member on this board). My main issue i struggle with is portfolio sizing and it seems to be anything but consistent. I seem to walk the line of one part of my portfolio being very concentrated (ie gold miners, chine/india etf, and my various shorts) and one part of it being more diverse with smaller positions in companies that I like.

I think this is probably different with every individual - I have to constantly ask myself what am I as not only a person but as an investor and there is a lot of conflict there. Any feedback and criticism welcomed.
