| The most good life?
Say you are an average, capable person, who has stubbornly decided that they are going to selflessly do the most that they can in their lifetime, to prevent or stop suffering on earth. You hold this ideal to the highest importance in your life, and are willing to go through great personal sacrifice.
For the sake of context, we will say you are living in western society, and you have just graduated from high school with good grades. You are capable of doing any occupation.
What life plan would lead to the most effective allocation of your time and energy, to fulfill your desire to stop or prevent suffering, to the maximum you are able to?
(for this thread, all of this is a given, we are not debating the existence of such people or altruism) |
