Doubtful he would have earned more than 15 in the States the rest of his career. Taxes may play some role here but being home for almost same amount of money + bigger endorsement deals in Spain than the US + usually European contracts include accommodation already, not that he would need any.

In short, taxes + endorsement possibilities will at the bare minimum be worth as much as he would get in the States before taxes.
