Findegil is a guest of Tom Bombadil.
I agree to much that was said already, but I would like to add that one big diffence is how Bilbo and Fordo lose the Ring.

Bilbo at the one hand gives it away by his own free will, even if he needed all the help Gandalf could give.
Frodo is robbed of the Ring wihle fighting to keep it his own.

That means Bilbo could be content that he had let the Ring pass away, while Frodo either had to face the fact that he had failed in his mission, or the we had lost it to his own inability to protect it as his possession or both.

I think that this makes a huge diffrence.

Respectfuly
