prince-william-271.jpg The Prince of Wales, Prince William(that’s the one who doesn’t get in trouble)may be headed for a U.S. investment bank when he works for a financial house for a month late this year. Betting firm Cantor Index has opened a market on the likely destination of the 23-year-old prince, with Merrill Lynch and the investment arm of JP Morgan Chase emerging among the favorites along with UK institutions including Barclays Capital and Schroders. That must make all of those Wharton grads pretty happy to know that they may have to compete with a prince to get a job. Honestly, could you imagine sitting in a waiting room at JP Morgan in your new $150 suit you bought off the rack at Boyd’s and then Prince William comes walking out of the interview room?
