Scared about career in teaching? Please help me out!?

I just graduated with degree in education and love teaching but I am afraid of the way it is going. Budget cuts, teachers being layed off....I don't want to take a job and then find myself jobless the next day. I'll be living on my own and will practically be homeless! I hear that principals can not renew your contract within the first two years for ANY reason. As a first year teacher, of course I'll be struggling more than veteran teachers and I'll be so worried if my students aren't always behaving, etc.

Any advice? I don't want to end up on the streets from either a budget cut or non-renewed contract. Please help.

...and I LOVE teaching.
