Do all landlords require proof of income?

Post Body

I was thinking yesterday about the fact that landlords in NYC care so much about proof of income, which generally equates to a standard 9-5 job.

What if you are sitting on a cash pile of hundreds of thousands, or millions? A job can lay you off at any time, but cash is money in the bank.

What if you own a startup doing 100 mil in revenue? Or a stock portfolio worth a ton?

What if you are a freelancer and get paid only a few times a year?

Does anyone have experience with proving alternative forms of income without guarantor?
