I am aware of the 60 day (and only once per 12 months) rule, but does this rule apply only to earnings or to all funds that are withdrawn (contributions and earnings)? Can I rollover contributions past the 60 days and/or more than once every 12 months?

If I want to take money out of my contributions, how is the account affected by the 5-year rule? Does this account have to be open for 5 years at the new institution before I can withdraw?
