Should I take contributions out of my Roth IRA to live off of?
Take another job.  From a personal finance perspective this is the wrong reason to dip into a retirement account.  You will lose so much ground towards actually retiring.  Sure you won't be taxed, but you will be missing so much opportunity where that money won't be working for your retirement. The off-topic answer to take to the start-ups stackexchange site is:  don't quit your day job until your business plan is written out and you have an idea of where to get your startup capital.
