The state of Japan's overall population may be mostly gray but its club of the rich and comfortable is prospering nicely.
The collective fortune of Japan's 40 richest has grown 13% to $93 billion since January 2010, according to Forbes Asia. The business publication did not issue a list in 2011 in light of last year's March disasters. The list is dominated by the usual suspects, with Fast Retailing Co.'s chief Tadashi Yanai's $10 billion nest once again making him the wealthiest of them all in Japan.
