		<description>This is like asking should you be a mechanic or a minister.  They are so different that there is no way to compare or contrast reasonably.

If you major in nursing in an associate degree, you could finish a bachelors degree in finance and work in finance.

However, the education for nursing would prepare you in no way whatsoever for finance without additional education.

If you are looking at such disparate careers, you should go to the counseling office at your local community college or university.  They can give you some simple screening tools which they use to determine the career fields which you are most likely to be suited for, according to your personality profile.  The Kuder personality test is one of these.

(On a personal note, I have been in nursing and health care for many years.  But when I was in school my brother tried to talk me into going into finance.  I ended up having to drop or almost fail every class as I hated the classes and had no aptitude.  Since then I was on Dean&#039;s List the rest of the time through Nursing School.  Graduated from my Masters degree with highest honors and top of the graduate school, have been inducted in several academic honor societies and finished my Ph.D.. It is much better to go into a field where you are comfortable and have an interest, you will do much better.  As it turns out my brother stayed in business and is a CEO and majority stock holder for his corporation.  I stayed in health care, and I am now the CEO of my own corporation.  We should all work in the career we were meant to psychologically.)</description>
