Accounting or CIS Degree

[beth3190]

I am looking for advice on choosing a degree. I have my associates in business management but I am looking to go back and get a bachelor's degree. However I am torn between 2 degrees. I enjoy accounting and working on computers and when I am looking at what the careers pay it seems like the CIS jobs get paid alot more than the accountant ones. I know quite a few people making $17-$20 without any degree at all and when I look at the avg. of $27 for any accountant I am wondering if it is worth all of the hard work?? The problem is that I have no computer background and wonder if it would be too hard to pick up at this point. I am 38 and have 2 children and work part-time as an office manager right now. Please advise.

Thanks
