With all due respect, Gatsby, I don't see you doing well in finance if econ turns you off. Seems to me the same principles would be involved, and they'd probably want a business/econ/accounting background.

Also, Sakky is right that lawyers don't always make that much, and probably generally make less than investment bankers. It's an exaggeration to say that even the "highest-paid" lawyer can be outearned by a mid-level I-banker, though. There are trial lawyers making billions, and many others making millions.
