1. Vedas are theistic, and believe in God, while actual Buddhism is anti theistic, and obviously non theistic.
2. Vedas believe that life is something to live, not to waste. So, every Vedic follower prays for at least a "hundred autumns" life span. (sharadaH shatam)
Vedas believe in action. Therefore, Veda supports Rishis, the sage philosophers, who actively participate in the wordly matters.
Buddhism, on the other hand, believes in passiveness. It thinks that life is a trap of action and relations. So, it renounces actions, and relationships, instead chooses sannyasa (asceticism) as the path.
In Vedas, asceticism is frowned upon. Passiveness is not tolerated. Yajur Veda 40 says :
"One, doing actions, should wish to live a hundred years".
Vedas believe that each single second is valuable for us, to enjoy in this world, and therefore enjoy to our desires. But Veda also sets the limit : "All this is encompassed by the God, with this renunciation in mind, enjoy... And do not desire other's materials"
This "enjoyment" with moral limits is a great idea to modern world.
But Buddhists believe that desire is the cause of all sufferings. Man is not destined to enjoy in this world... and is pessimistic.
3. Veda does not believe in Karma theory, or rebirths, or any sort of superstitions.
But Buddhists do. And also the post Buddha Hindus do.
