What would be the best firm to work for money-wise after graduation ?

Let's assume that a very smart person graduated from Harvard with 4.0 GPA, completed his CFA 1, interned at GS and BlackStone, and got perfect extracurriculars. This person has no passion except money and wants to pursue a career in non-quantitative finance. Because of his academic achievements every firm wants to hire him. At which financial firm, this person could make the most amount of money?
