I was actually thinking about Sweden, my home country.
In my home town there's been a rather significant rise in job opportunities as a result of people "who have already made their fortune", as you say, moving there from the big cities to settle down. In my previous post I was merely suggesting that the same might happen (if the circumstances are right) in Japan at some point in the future.
Right now I live in a flat in North-West England (though I'll be leaving soon), and it is certainly true that as soon as people graduate from university, they tend to get the heck out of here a.s.a.p. and head down south. Can't say I blame them.
