The question can't be answered quite so generally. And yes, you should "just do something" in a sense, because investing money you don't have yet will distract you from making money.
That said, the size of your exit would determine how much money you could make in purely passive investments. If you can make 5% on your money, then you need $1mm to make 5k per year right? So you're looking for more than $5mm if you want passive lifestyle income.
With a small exit you could still make a decent down payment on an investment property, or a small business to do a turnaround on. Look through the forum... there are a few people who have bought small businesses and fixed them up, and the prices were pretty low and the terms good (eg: 50% owner financing). If you can find deals like those, there's no reason why a $100,000 exit can't help you get to the next level.
