From what I've understood from his post, it's all about being financially free and having the freedom back that he's allocated to other things before. So that's most likely the summary of his post about being thankful for bitcoin. Also, he's got a job that's being paid in bitcoin.

True story mate.
We all won't be feeling like what you're feeling right now if it were not for bitcoin. Using it as a payment for remote tasks, transfers and also as an investment at the same time, we're all grateful that there's satoshi who has invented it.
