FAANG VS INDEX


So I recently started investing, realizing how I have money just sitting in a bank and not working for me. I recently bought stocks while the market was low.

My plan is to allocate my portfolio like this

70% VTI

10% Tech(apple +microsoft +google+ amazon)

20% VXUS

My question on here is should i still invest in MAANG even though the ETF covers it? MY friends say that FAANG can be used similarly to an index because they are safe investments ie google +apple +microsoft. They have said that since these 3 stocks have outpreformed the index it is safe to invest and hold them long term. So currently I own google + apple + microsoft and VTI and vxus. Should I continue to buy MAANG or chill with VTI and vxus? The reason I want to own google +apple + microsoft is that these companie scontinue to grow and dominate like they have for the past 10+yrs and these companies don't look like their slowing down and have really expanded their reach as well as having a cult following(especially apple). Thoughts?
