You'll make the majority of your plat 50+, yes, but that doesn't mean you should just mindlessly blow through all those levels and race to 50+ for the loot grind. You'll probably burn yourself out. Also, you'll want better than banded before you hit 50.

Aviak Guards in Lake Rathe 19-24, drop bronze weapons. Vendors in zone. Bind in Arena.

40-50 Sol B, Gear, fine steel, etc.
Spend some time looking at the wiki, there's a few things that sells for several thousand plat that drops off low level mobs. Even just camping one and selling it will give you enough plat to sufficiently gear yourself enough to make the grind to 50+ significantly easier. Fishbone Earring, Glowing Black Stone, Goblin Ghazugi Ring, Hidden Bracer are tough to camp, but not out of reach for a mid level character.
