To make this story short,it just amazes me when people say proof of income they assume paystub or physical check.I LAUGH at that,and I don't work a 9 to 5 job.I'm freelance contract and I do work online jobs.So anyways I applied for a few apartments and when they say proof of income I told them I'll either email or print out my paypal statements(I receive money in my paypal account every month for the company I have contract with).But however so far they denied me and wanted a check or pay stub,which is ridiculous. EVERYONE assumes job is either in the office or flipping burgers.That's like 60's,anyways im not too worried ill find a apartment(I definitely got the money for it)
Drug dealers may have similar "proof" of income. You are paying taxes on your income, right...?
Have you provided your employment contract to help explain the non-traditional way of being paid?

Maybe first you work on that attitude you have? Just because you're your own boss, doesn't make you better than other possible tenants
Second, I wouldn't trust someone simply showing me their bank account. For all I know, you sell crack and make good money doing so.
Tax forms are the easiest & most reliable, as they would also show if you're consistent with your earnings
My bank account along with the statements is showing the companies that pay me monthly(hence income).
Not really,income statements of my earnings are reliable hence paypal...
In the end, the only way you'll qualify to rent an apartment is to supply whatever paperwork the owner or manager requires. It may or may not be what you feel is reasonable, but that doesn't matter.

If someone were to show me a PayPal statement instead of Tax Returns, I'd laugh. PayPal isn't meant to be used for "official" proof of anything. It's for people to buy crap online
You're going to have an interesting time when the day comes that you try to buy a home.
Haha, no he'll be fine. Those PayPal statements will do everything he needs "laughs"
