Anyone making it on 50k-60k in Manhattan?

Anyone making it on 50-60k in Manhattan? I have a job offer for something in this range, and am a little concerned I may not be able to live this. I'm not concerned about saving because I only plan to do it for 1-2 years, and then move on to something a bit higher (90k+). Is it livable?

Are you able to go out 1-2 days a week, pay alright for dates, etc.? Hopefully looking too find an apartment around $1400 rent, take the subway as much as possible instead of Ubers, etc. How are you guys making it? Any pro tips to save money?
