It's sort of a riff on pascal's wager. If he's right about p(doom), not freezing himself means he loses nothing, and freezing himself means he also loses nothing. If he's wrong, not freezing himself means he loses everything, freezing himself means he gains indefinite life extension. The only real cost he faces is the money he could have given to someone else upon death. Seems like a personal value decision.
