I heard an interview with the costumer who designed Elvis Presley's rhinestone-studded jumpsuits. They kept on not paying him, but he was having so much fun that he didn't really want to stop, so instead of quitting he just kept making each jumpsuit more elaborate and more expensive. "Yes, this new suit requires $15,000 worth of genuine Alsatian rhinestones." Not exactly win-win, but I'm glad he was having fun and spending a ton of Elvis' money.
