Mortage : with interest rates currently going up, you will need to pay attention to how much debt you are carrying, if you need to remortgage to a new rate in the next 3 yrs you could well be in for a shock, I recently spoke to my mortgage adviser, I asked him how much is 4% on interest only for 300k, its a grand a month, mortage rates are much higher than this, this should be a important factor to consider before you spulrge your cash.
Track record : How good are you in this posh casino we play ? Are you overall profitable ? Something to consider.
If its massive money I would be patient over the next 2yrs and wait for the big crash that is inevitably coming at some point, most likely when the central banks have incresed the base rate up around 5%, massive money should sit in safer stocks IE FTSE 100, or if buying on a massive crash a tracker, personally I have a limit on smaller share I try to not over buy ( like this one lol )
Overall do what you think is right for yourself and your happy with, as others have said probably a bit I'd both would be the safest bet.
Don't let it burn a hole in pocket, it's very easy to run out and splurge the lot, good luck in what you decide, most importantly, make yourself happy, we only live once and there's no refunds.
