Most wide body pilots are old enough to have a wide range of experience. Nobody would put down the turbo props, but having flown various types from light piston, fighter, turboprop, various transport category jets and many more you will find the experience has a cumulative effect. Is one better than another? That's up to you, but you know where the money is and if you want a career you know what you need.
There are many good people out there with skills far better than my own who don't have a job. It may be that job hunting, human interaction and luck are just as important as raw flying skill. One without the others is not going to get you the seat you want.
