Best Revenge: Why the Best Revenge Has Nothing to do with Your Ex

Best Revenge Has Nothing to Do with Your Ex

Best revenge aka next level revenge is where it is at.  Say goodbye to the gloves come off, no more playing nice type revenge. That is old and outdated. Last thing you want is a record because you did something stupid. I do not condone the blind rage, anger fueled revenge. But there is nothing wrong about a more strategic and calculating kind of revenge. The kind of revenge that when done right gets everyone’s attention. This revenge is all about you. Traditionally revenge was always about the other person and getting back at them. It was all about being petty. Not the new revenge I am talking about. It’s all about you! Keep reading if you want to now more about the best revenge.

Out with the Old Revenge

The old tit-for-tat revenge is just a waste of time. It is so unnecessary. And nobody has that kind of time, energy or effort. Plus, I’m guessing your ex is not worth the aggravation. Truthfully it gets you no where fast. And you end up looking all kinds of cray-cray. Enter, the next level revenge. Instead of calling it revenge which is such a strong and often negative word. Let’s call it leveling up or upgrading. I like to think of it as elevating your life. Doing away of the things and people that no longer serve you. Because, everything after your ex is an upgrade. It’s all about operating in your life at a higher level, vibration and frequency. It’s basically letting go of all dead weight and negative energy. No shade to the exes. I mean that in the best possible way.

There is Revenge Body

We can thank Khloe Kardashian for her brain-child Revenge Body. Which is her reality-based show that makes over people looking for the ultimate revenge using the assistance of personal trainers and stylists. With the end game of a radical transformation both inside and out. If you recall Khloe turned to exercise and fitness when her marriage to Lamar Odom blew up in her face. There is nothing better than taking your anger and frustration over your breakup in the gym or working out. When you look great you feel great. Plus, it is a great confidence and self-esteem booster. She has gone on to become one of the co-founders of Good American her body positive, size-inclusive denim line. This a great example of how a breakup can make you major bank.

 Breakup Money aka Revenge Money

1 in 4 have financial difficulties after a relationship breakup (UK Study). Breakup money is about securing your own financial situation and using your breakup to profit. We call that profiteering. Don't you just love that word? I do! And it is totally legit and does not carry the same risks as regular revenge. I know because that is exactly what I have been able to do. As I mentioned I’m not talking about elaborate and dramatic breakup revenge plots and schemes against your ex. I will leave out the examples, but I came across a ton of them. But that is not our focus. The kind of revenge I’m talking about is the kind that doesn’t come back and bite you in the butt later. Instead it lines your bank account and elevates you to your next level of greatness. You see you can’t change or control what your ex does. The only person you are responsible for that you can change and control is yourself. What you make of your breakup is 100% up to you. I chose to bank from mine. No regrets there.

Beyoncé Has the Right Idea

Beyoncé does not do petty. She is all about next level revenge. So, taking a page from Queen Bey, “Always stay gracious, best revenge is your paper.” This has been my personal mantra since my own breakup blindside. It has also been the motivation for how I handled my breakup moving forward. What my ex does or who they are doing is none of my business. They owe me nothing. No explanation, nothing. Because there is nothing that they could say to me now that could change anything. The damage has been done. They showed me who they were and now I believe them. I only wish I had done so sooner. Oh well, you live and you learn. Shout out to my ex. Thanks to my ex for ghosting me. It changed my life for the better. I’m so B.A.E (better after ex!)

Banking from Breakup is the Best Revenge

​​​​​​Best of all it doesn’t involve breaking the law in any way. Living your best life and making money is not illegal. You get the satisfaction of bouncing back like a badass, glow up on 100, plus the bank notes to go with it. Not a bad alternative to the typical kinds of standard revenge people want to exact on their exes. It’s 2019 there is no room for basic, regular revenge. I’m not condoning traditional rage fueled revenge. But, if you’re like me it’s only next level revenge all the way aka banking from your breakup. Breakups are hard. And wanting to hurt the person who hurt you is a normal response. It is an inborn instinct to lash out. Trust me it is easy to be petty, mean and hurtful. We’re wired for that (it’s a survival thing). But this is where cool heads must prevail.

Consequences of the Next Level Revenge

First there is no risk of committing a criminal offense and getting a felony charge. You just have to turn on the news on any given day to see people who have taken their revenge too far. Seeking revenge on your ex doesn’t change your situation and usually reflects badly on the revenge seeker. The new revenge has nothing to do with your ex, nor with doing anything crazy. Imagine the possibilities for your life. You look great, feel amazing, and your back in the driver’s seat of your life making money. Your life is 100% better than it ever was when you were with your ex. This is what I am talking about. You’ve created your own personal financial safety net.

Flip the Script on Your Breakup (Do the Unexpected)

Speaking from my own experience there is no greater feeling or satisfaction than banking from your breakup. Trust me I refused to let my breakup derail me. No TKO (technical knock out) here. Solid jab, jab, jab, hook and those gloves were on. I took what was meant to break me and I flipped the script on it. The best decision I’ve made in my life. There is nothing basic or regular about Banking from Breakup™. It is next level revenge to the tenth degree. It is revengeance (revenge + vengeance) without the violent retaliation. Instead of inflicting severe emotional or physical damage, you cash in on your heartbreak. Which is not unheard of since celebrities have been doing it for a minute.

The Big Bankable Lesson

The last time I checked revenge doesn’t pay you dividend dollars. Banking from breakup gives you a better return on your investment. So, you are better off leveraging your breakup and using it to your financial advantage to bank. Think of it as breakup insurance and recouping your investment for the inconvenience. Remember, leveling up or upgrading is all about you. It has nothing to do with your ex. Because if you are doing it to get your ex’s attention, and not to better yourself it will only backfire.
