Default serious question about career

Ok, so I am 40 years old. I am CFI/CFII with 1000 hoursTT and 65 ME. I havent really been on here in a while because I got disgruntled a bit with this industry. I am a former police officer and currently inthe military part time.

There is still an interest in working for a regional airline as a career. No one is hiring right now andit looks like it may be a few years. In the meantime CFIing really isnt paying the bills. I need to decides do I continue this or go into another field all together.

Now that they are raising the requirements to 1500 hours and probably 300-500 ME how do I get that experieince? I dont work ata big name flight school I work at a flying club and get maybe 20 hours a month of flying in. Any advice would be very helpful. Thank you.
