My fiance' likes his job but doesnt make all that much money. I make more than he does and I was wondering should I get hime to quit and go somewhere where he can make more money are am I just being selfish and greedy? I don't always like to have the burden that if I were to loose my job we would loose most of everything we own. I wish that he could find a job where he would make just about the same money so we would be even and not have to worry too much about paying bills and living check to check. Anyone have any suggestions? Or let me know if I'm being selfish and greedy.

i don't think you're being selfish. you're just trying to look forward to your future and think of what's best for you two.
since your boyfriend likes his current job, it's gonna hard for you to make him leave his job. but i think if you two get to talk about it, he might understand.
try to find sometime to talk to him about your thoughts. if he accepts your thoughts and put them to reality, then lucky you. but if he won't, then respect him anyway.

Well he could look for a new job while still working at his current job. He shouldnt leave just for more money, he would have to enjoy the new job as well so its no good just taking any job, it would have to be the right job. You need to discuss it with your fiance to see how he feels about the situation adn what he is prepared to do. Although he enjoys his job, you both need to thnk about the future.

Thats what I feel too, but sometimes I feel bad about wanting him to change jobs because he likes his so much. I just feel that he could be making more money as a man. Maybe that's old school talk but that's just how I feel.
