What is the difference between a career in Finance and a career in Accounting?

I am thinking about going back to school to get a BS in Business Administration.

I would like to know what the difference is in careers in Finance and Accounting. Has anyone had a career in either field? What I want to know is:

What did you think of your career?

What did you do all day in Finance or Accounting?

Did you find it exciting or really boring?

For a career as a Financial Planner or Financial Advisor, do you work off of commision only?

Any information would be very helpful. Thanks.

    a B.S. in Bus Admin is a useless degree
    Finance is more banking/credit/loans/mortgages related
    accounting is number crunching, financial statement prep, auditing
    accounting is generally boring repetitive, often stressful
    haven’t worked in Finance field
    FP/FA - mostly commission or salary with sales quotas - cold calling
