Yes Kristie, this is what I meant. Sorry for the lack of original elaboration.

Folks who upgrade to making $61K+ a year at the regional level, live to their financial limit, and then can never move up to Delta, Northwest, Southwest, etc. because they can't afford to make <$40K for a year. Some advice on what to do financially as a regional captain from the legacy and major pilots would be great.
