A lot of variables at play here. Personally, given that I live in an inexpensive country, I'll pay of my mortgage and take a year of in pursuit of some personal projects which have plenty of potential but I don't have the time I truly need to focus on either of them. A year and 1-200 k would be sufficient to live off and spare over half of that on those projects. If it goes sideways, keep the rest of the money as a retirement fund and go back to a developer job.
