living on a 40,000 salary in NYC... doable?
You have to give us more info. Is that gross? net? Does your job cover health insurance/malpractice insurance? how much debt do you have? The short answer is...maybe? 40K after taxes if you are (and plan on remaining) debt free is definitely doable. 40K -taxes -health insurance -malpractice -student loan payments isn't really doable anywhere outside of your mom's basement.

It’s totally doable if you have a roommate and live in NJ/queens/the Bronx/some parts of brooklyn.
 
Imma say no. I tried doing something similar during residency. It sucked badddddddddddddddd (inhales) dddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd.

If you can, moonlight for a like extra somethin somethin. 40k might barely cover rent.
 
You have to get a place in queens and commute.
