Maybe you should look at Epicureanism. If you only had a glance at it and reduced it to "YOLO!", then take a closer look, as it is not about ignoring the consequences of your actions, in fact, it is the opposite of that. But the one thing Epicureans don't want to consider is death.

Death is just an insignificant transition between existence and non-existence, and what happens after you cease to exist is irrelevant to you because, well, there is no "you" there. The deathbed at least represents some period of time, but do you really want to live your life for a short moment you won't remember?

It doesn't mean you shouldn't think about future generations, and be a good person in general. Just don't do it for the deathbed, do it for the present, doing good feels good.
