The rich are different than you or me, and it turns out that the ultrarich are different than the mere well-to-do, according to a survey that asked wealthy investors about the effects of the recession on their portfolios and prospects.

PNC Wealth Management polled 1,046 adults with annual incomes of $150,000 or above, at least $500,000 of investable assets or, if retired, at least $1 million of investable assets in September. PNC Wealth Management is part of PNC Financial Services Group Inc. (PNC).
