Im purely talking on a mathematical, practical level. Not a moral one.


Im 20f any literally put my first 100$ in investing.

With the help of reddit ( thank you ) I put this investing plan together:

50% [Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF](https://investor.vanguard.com/investment-products/etfs/profile/vti) (VTI) 

25% [Invesco S&P 500® Momentum ETF](https://www.invesco.com/us/en/financial-products/etfs/invesco-sp-500-momentum-etf.html) (SPMO)

25% [Vanguard Information Technology ETF](https://investor.vanguard.com/investment-products/etfs/profile/vgt)


This is great but I remember hearing some meme or something like that"just follow whatever x is doing" And the women I was thinking of is Nancy Pelosi. Why dont more people follow politicians that obviously are profiting off of insider trading?
