Holders of bachelor degrees in math, how much harder than calc 2 does a math degree get? I've done well in everything so far but I'm just curious how much harder it would get. Does the switch away from mostly algabra based problems mess with you?

Intro to proofs is to analysis as Calc 2 is to multivariable and diff eq.
I think that the difficulty is the same or easier because hopefully you reach a level of maturity such that the difficulty comes from volume of work more than application of ideas.

at the undergraduate level many of the proof problems are still "algebra based" that is, they are proofs by symbolic manipulation.
on the whole though, the difficulty depends on the school. If you go to a serious school and get hit with hard real analysis (rudin tier stuff) then it will be pretty difficult, atleast relative to the average math student's capabilities.

I'm going to a pretty decent state school. Then the next issue is figuring out what I wanna do with this degree because I'm not interested in any more schooling and I'd rather die than become a teacher.

Start looking into becoming an actuary. You only need a bachelor's degree and some certifications... you can thank me later.

I've always been interested in that, although I've heard max salary is pretty capped
