Just to be clear, I didn't start, nor did I continue, contributing to SN for the sats. I contribute because I enjoy it, I get to learn hands on with new technology which grows my skillset as an engineer, and I have had the time to do so. But the sats are a nice extra benefit!
I feel you. I know when I started contributing, the first sats were a huge surprise. I started to mention that I don't want to get paid. I just want to show support. To show @k00b I believe in SN and he's not alone.
He sent me sats anyway, haha
But I guess it's the same for @k00b. He also wants to show appreciation for good work :)

Where the hell did I read this ... oh yeah, here.
Giving someone money is maybe the least thoughtful way to show someone you value them but there's no mistaking that you value them when you do.
