I took a step away from my stock-picking types of articles and wrote this one about my broader investing process.

[https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/05/03/why-owning-over-100-top-stocks-helps-me-sleep-well/](https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/05/03/why-owning-over-100-top-stocks-helps-me-sleep-well/)

Owning over 100 stocks is certainly not for everyone, but for me, it reduces my investing anxiety for three key reasons:

1) My FOMO on multibaggers is somewhat calmed
2) I'm able to add to winning stocks systematically
3) It somewhat naturally diversifies my holdings and lets losers fade away

Ultimately, my fear of missing out on a fantastic multibagger _far exceeds_ the disappointment I'd feel from dozens of small bets going to zero.

While I do have my core 34 holdings (since I'm 34) that I focus on adding to, these additional 80 or 90 stocks act as my farm system, much like baseball.

None of this works if not done for the long-term, so keep in mind that I never plan to sell anything unless they become a massive portion of my allocation or become morally/financially bankrupt.

There is a little bit more to it that goes into this process, but it might get too wordy for a post on here -- feel free to ask questions if you think any of this looks nuts 😂

That large a portfolio might be overwhelming for some investors, but it's anxiety-reducing for me.
