What Should I do?

So I'm in a pretty bad delimma where I was on a contract for a job for 5 years and I succefully finished out my contract. A few months ago the old CEO left and a new CEO was hired who hates me for no reason. This new CEO has already fired everyone I originally worked with which really pissed me off and others and it's due to the CEO creating a toxic work environment.

I was job searching and was almost hired as a CEO for another company before my contract expired, but the final interview didn't go well. After that the CEO of the company I work for began to harass me daily and is trying to control my life. The CEO literally told me that this workplace is the most important thing in life and that it's more important than family, which I disagreed.

Unfortunately, I ran out of savings, have children as a single parent, and feel stuck because I can't maintain this job anymore. They presented me with a new contract that is worse than the one I had, and they basically told me that they would make my job impossible and didn't appreciate my previous work after I built the company to where it is today where the new CEO could have a job in the first place.

Question, do you think I should just deny their contract and take the unemployment? Or should I try to work at this place a little longer? Due to debt and expenses I would need another high paying job (6 figures). But I do have a few tricks up my sleeves and some potential life changing opportunities pending that will take a month and a half for me to find out if I got them. Thank you in advance everyone!
