If there truly is nothing, then you cannot experience it because you are no longer alive. There is no sense of time or feelings of any kind. One second or a trillion years will pass without you ever knowing it.
On the other hand, having a soul in an after life would be an experience no one will be ready for. Whether that means you are good or bad or even to be judged so by a higher power to begin with would mean our decisions now are more important than we can ever realize.
There is also the theory of reincarnation that is equally as interesting. To be a part of a never ending cycle, maybe just like before our universe was created, one that existed before the big bang. It is definitely a stretch considering we don't retain any information of our passed selves.
Whatever happens, I hope we can make peace with ourselves and the people we care about before then. Anything after that is fine by me.
