[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]No $40 K does not cut it. Even in Brooklyn. [/b] I lived there for a couple of years and it is crazy fucking expensive. For instance it costs twelve dollars to drive over a fucking bridge. [/quote] Funny because I know several families, including my aunt who is getting by just fine on about $40k. OP, its like any other big city, there are expensive areas and there are less expensive areas. The biggest expense will be housing which means that she will not be able to live in Brooklyn Heights, Park Slope or any of the other tony areas. If she is willing to move further into the borough (Flatbush, parts of Williamsburg, parts of Prospect and Crown Heights), then I think she can make do. She will just have to watch her expenses (subway/bus instead of cabs etc.). I wish her luck.[/quote]
