Why don't you just put it in your wife's name?

I have been asked the above question many times and there are several reasons:

1. I am stubborn;
2. I still have a "fix the world" streak;
3. Sometimes my wife says no, like when I wanted to get highly leveraged to buy an apartment;
4. I believe if people want my money, they should be prepared to make a contract with me;
5. I had reservations about placing debt in the name of my non-working spouse, now they are reservations about putting debt in the name of my spouse who earns less than me;
6. Finally I believe that Korea cannot become a global financial centre while the word foreigner is used to justify not providing services to customers.

I have my mobile phone, our apartment (rental) and our car in my name.  I hope one day to be able to put a mortgage in my name too.

I hope you're having a great day.
