I'd throw the 100k into investments and continue to work a normal software job. If I'm not yet financially independent, as the prompt suggests, I'm gonna take the low risk path forward.
Other than that, the only constraints are you need to love 2/3 of your day so 1/3 of your day is spent on things you don’t enjoy but need to get done.
Assuming the 1/3 here is work, we don't get 2/3 of a day to enjoy. Sleep is 1/3, and after adding in "life stuff" like cooking, cleaning, showering, eating, commuting, etc, you're getting less than 1/3 of a day to enjoy, and it's going to be your most tired hours of the day (assuming you're working at the beginning of your day and not the end).
There isn't a profitable endeavor that exists that I could say I would enjoy over doing something else that is less profitable (to the point of not being sustainable).
