You gave up 15% of your salary to work in a company where, presumably, everyone earns 15% less than your previous salary. Would you accept earning swedish wages working remote from sweden in a german company?

I bet he would, because he's saying "this is the quality of life I want and this is the price I am willing to pay to get it."

In your book "I want to live in Sweeden. I am happy to give up 15% less. But I won't do it to somehow spite my company for paying more to its German employees."

He's be an idiot to think like that.

Well, if I work as hard as a small-town Swede, with the quality of life of a small town Swede, then it makes sense to me to work at Swedish rate for a German company.
