I never thought of having this problem. I have saved quite a nice savings over the years but I would never submit that amount for information as that is personal and private. It looks like I must look into another option (area) where the rental requirements are not based on income but rather past financial history such as where I have been living without any problem. So much for retirement and being 73. Thanks for your input.

Part of the verification process usually includes your last two years tax returns. If you have a decent saving but obviously do not want to disclose the amount, your interest and dividends along with your social security could get you where you need to be.
