In my opinion, taking some time off is a great idea. After dabbling in coding a long time, I am considering doing something similar. There's no reason to weekend warrior everything. As long as you have the focus and discipline to work every day without someone standing over you (always an "if" but the bootcamps and stuff can help keep you on track) taking time off is great. And now, at age 24, is one of the best times to take time off. It is good to be frugal, save money, and be able to take time away from working full time, if you want to do interesting stuff with your life. So I say, really, go for it. Don't defer your dreams.
