This is purely hypothetical, and not actually happening.

Say its a husband and wife. The husband is the primary bread winner. His annual salary is 150k. The wife just finished school and was offered her dream job. the catch, they need to move 2000 miles away. From one high cost of living area to another high cost of living area. the other catch, Her job is less than 50% of the husbands current income, at 45k annually. His job won't transfer him, and there aren't remote work options. Who should be expected to give up ones career? The husband? or the wife? at least until a better option presents.

I personally vote that the wife should wait for a better option. Especially considering the husbands salary is 3 times what she would make.

Most of us work. Of those who don’t, many are getting some sort of formal education or training to help them become more productive and marketable.
