That's totally ok. If you play one 40$ mtt at a time it takes ages for you to go broke. Also that low player number gives you a super low variance compared to anything online.
If 40$ is the minimum there is nothing you can do anyway. 40$ live should be like 1-4$ online so I guess the edge is there too.

start doing a spreadsheet to track your results!
Here's a trick to lower your variance even more. Buy your own action.
Say you start with 2000$. For this to work a cushion is good so maybe let's say you have 1500$ and 500$ as a cushion.
Now you play 40$ with 1500$. Lose first game, down to 1460$. Now you take 20$ out of the cushion and put it into the roll again to cover 50% of the losses.
now we play again with 1480$; win something and net 100$ (1580$ whole roll), now we take 50% of the winnings out. So 1480 roll+50 win = 1530$ roll + 50$ for your cushion. So instead of a 1460 to 1580 swing you will get a 1480 to 1530 swing in this example.
