I'm okay with that as long as I can get a job making at least 45k-50k starting and with good prospects for making more as I get more experienced.(would need higher if I move to a higher cost of living area)

If you can demonstrate your intelligence to an employer, you can achieve this paygrade without the degree. I've work with and for people who make more than this who don't even have their bachelor's.

I took calc 1-3 and got straight A's. Took statistics, although it was through the psych department. Got an A in that too.

A finace degree's math will probably bore you, and I'd hate to be bored without getting paid substantially for it. Have you considered law and economics or patent law? The pay will be better and (depending on how you structure your electives) the math more interesting.
