My(28m) wife(25F) says I'm too ambitious and it makes her insecure when I brought up that I got a new job offer.

My wife and I argued about a job offer thats on the table. I work at a small town casino and she works part time as a food stocker at a local grocery market. I make about 50k a year and she makes 20k. The argument happened when I told my wife that I was offered a job by my old colleague that would pay more and have better benefits. She got mad saying that I was too ambitious and that I made her insecure. Confused, I asked her what she meant. She said that she was tired me constantly looking for better opportunities/job/promotions and that she wanted me to just stay in one place and settle. I was just baffled because everything I do is for us. Over the past 2 years I've had 4 jobs, each one increasing higher pay/benefits with this next one giving me a 15k bump and even better benefits. Any advice?

TL;DR: Wife is upset, saying that I am overly ambitious, making her feel insecure. I Just got a new job offer and the wife doesn't want me to take it.
