I vaguely remember reading about some philosophy where there was no such thing as a selfless act, as you always get something out of it, even if it's just a warm fuzzy feeling inside.

That's just one example of why I find most of philosophy to be a complete waste of time.

Relying on vague memories for such broad judgements. Seems like a sound philosophy to me ;)
I think you are referring to economics...
