Dentist doing earning to give. I have pledged to donate minimally 50 % (aiming for 65-70%) or 40.000-50.000 $ annually (at the beginning of my career). While I do expect to mainly do “giving now”, I do plan, in periods of limited effective donating opportunities, to do “investing to give”.

As a longtermist and total utilitarian, finding the cause that increases utilities (no matter the time or type of sentient being) the most time/​cost-effectively is my goal. In the pursuit of this goal, I so far care mostly about: alignment, s-risk, artificial sentience and WAW (wild animal welfare) (but feel free to change my mind).

I heard about EA for the first time in 2018 in relation to an animal rights organization I worked for part-time (Animal Alliance in Denmark). However I have only had minimal interactions with EAs.
