A Good Job

This brilliant mathematician, Charles Something-Or-Other, innovated the math on electricity. So, Thomas Edison offered him a job at GE. He said he would take the job if instead of a set salary, GE would just pay whatever bills he sent them. And they agreed.

Imagine, just buy a house, send the bill.
Buy a Mercedes, send the bill.

Now that's the negotiating advantage of being brilliant.
