Effective Altruism Is a New Idea, Right?

The idea of effective altruism is to use the resources you have to do as much good as possible. The most straightforward thing that anyone with disposable income can do is just to donate money to super effective charities. It's about finding a balance where you say, oka, what's something that i can do that makes good use of my talents and uses those resources in a way that really can do a lot of good? And there's a great organization called 80 thousand hours that offers advice to people who are trying to figure out if they should go into finance or not.
