Right on the mark Gearupandorrf...totally agree with your comments regarding "young pilots".
I know of at least 5 guys in their mid 30's with CPL, MECIR with around 400 hrs TT (including military time), currently working in various industries bar aviation. Four of the five are married with a mortgage, and could not afford to remain in the industry.These guy's would be more than happy to retire doing a regional airline gig. The airlines need to wake up and take advantage of this age group before the overseas airlines do. Only a matter of time I assure you!
I too once recently came under this banner, and decided to join the military. Never looked back since!
