True! Plus, say you're a career-changer, get hired at 35 or so, by the time you're 53 you can enjoy a six figure income for seven years before the feds say "Begone old man!"
If I wanted to have a long term regional career, I would want to win the lottery(aka-not have to work), wouldn't want to train for another plane, and want to fly often almost everyday.

But you gotta consider the context here. Consider that no legacy major airline (maybe besides Continental) is going to hire for a Looooooong time, and even when they do, Capt. upgrade times will be huge!
At age 35 right now, you'd have to wait about 10 years just for American, Delta, United to start hiring. Now you're 45. Who knows how long it'll take to upgrade. Another 10 years? You're 55 anyway.
