Did I say mandatory? I meant optional! You're "free" to die in a cardboard box under a freeway as a market capitalist scarecrow warning to the other ants so they keep showing up to make us more!

I've never made 6 figures before, but was asked to show my investment portfolio value when applying for a mortgage as it was part of my assets. Assets the bank could seize if I didn't pay my bill.

TIL I'm the 1%.

That's strange. I've had a few mortgages now and have never been asked to show my investment portfolio. Where are you and what bank asked for the info?

Canada. All of the banks I applied at asked for total assets, including TD and Scotiabank.
