You said you'd prefer everyone to live awesome lives, I'm not sure how that could be construed as evil. :)
Serious answer: Even if I don't endorse it, I do feel a pang of guilt/envy/low-status at being less than 100% a self-impoverishing Effective Altruist, which has been coming out as an urge to declare myself not-evil, even by comparison.
Joke answer: eyes flash white, sips tea. SOON.
Okay, in that case you should stop feeling those negative emotions right now. :) Nobody here is a 100% self-impoverishing EA, and we ended up agreeing that it wouldn't even be a useful goal to have, so go indulge yourself in something not-at-all-useful-nor-altruistic and do feel good about it. :)
