Try getting a job in billing, AR or AP to start. While you are doing that job, go to school at night and get your Bachelor Degree.
The AR or AP might be a low paying job, but it will definitely give you some serious financial expertise and will look great on a resume.

You can definitely be a financial analyst without your CFA, however you will not be making the serious money until you get that license. Your best option might be to work in a similar field, such as accounting audting or financial consulting. You will get to play with numbers a lot, and can make a great living at it.
