Thirdly, he has committed himself to Miami for atleast 6-years and he may end up spending the rest of his career/life living in Miami. He probably wants a place that he can settle down in long term. Finally, buying a home is usually a wise investment. The value of this home should appreciate in the years to come and LeBron could end up making a nice profit.
People here are saying they'd never spend more than $2-3 million on a home?
The guy is 25, has earned around $200m, makes over $40 mill a season, will have easily earned well over $500m by the end of his new contract, what the ++%$ do you want him to do with his money? Wire it to a Swiss bank account and jerk off to the money he's generating in interest? He's not gonna take that money to his grave...
