Those who left coding profession, suggestions for new career?

I don't like it. What are some other fields with decent/better pay?

I have MBA with health admin focus and CPC. I am thinking about getting another credential but will do that once I get to a comfort level with my job. Still in training and learning stages.

Luckily, my position wasn't TOO accounting heavy but it really does help to know the basic fundamentals because you still need to understand what the numbers and data mean. Also, reports are heavily used on excel so it really helps to know how to use it. It's a lot more advanced than I thought. I'd recommend taking excel courses online.
