6 months seems to be cutting it pretty close - as a general rule, everything takes 2-3 times longer than you expect it will. Remember, there's a good chance your first launch will fail. We launched 2 sites in the 9 months where I kept my day job, and both went kerplop. That could be because of a half-hearted effort (the app I'm working on was also the main plan, I just couldn't concentrate enough to build it while I still had the day job), but in general easy sites don't make money, and sites that make money aren't easy.
Also as a reminder, the more you have achieved, and the more you have to show, not only the easier you can get funding, but the higher you will be evaluated, which is definitely to your benefit. I would say giving out shares and raising money just so you can pay for your life expenses is not the best idea, get a line of credit!
Anyways, it looks like you are in better shape than I thought. All the best to you.
