How old is too old for first RHS?

Before you condemn this thread to the 'wannabes' section, I would just like a bit of feedback from established crews (no wannabe bullsh1fters please). I am a CPL/IR FI with 650 hours looking for my first proper job at age 42, having come up through the self-improver JAR route. The market is so flat at the moment, I would be lucky to get a job aged 25 with 2000 hours in the bank. the feedback from other forums is either that I am well past it already and should give up hope of getting any kind of airline job and commit to career instruction. Yet on the flip side ther are others who suggest that if the market was more bouyant then age is no barrier yet.

What do you think? Remember i could be at least a year older before the market even starts to come off intensive care....all contributions gratefully received.
