Answer:

Alexander Hamilton, the founding father shown on the $10 bill, grew up in poverty. He worked hard to get an education. Subsequently, he became George Washington's secretary during the Revolutionary War. Later, he served as a delegate to the Constitutional Convention. Then, Washington asked him to serve as Secretary of the Treasury. Consequently, Hamilton became the father of our nation's financial system.​

The only difference, per se, is in choosing one method over the other to establish/maintain a smooth flow. Think of the 'period-comma' as a red light; the 'semicolon-comma' is merely a stop sign. See the examples below.

I spilled hot coffee in my lap while driving 80 miles per hour. Consequently, I crashed into a tree.

I like pizza; therefore, I eat it every day.
