I'm in my 30's and not quit sure what to do, it's a pretty tough decision to go to a regional and take the huge pay cut or hold out and see what happens. looking for some advice from exprienced pilots, thanks alot

no you don't....i never flew for the regionals...i flew cargo lears out of college for 3 years and then went to FDX...get the experience..that's the bottom line..good luck!
