You could say, hey, we think so highly of the way you are approaching your problems, we'll marry you and sink or swim with you.
It's one thing to take on the problems of a Pac-Man Jones or a Ben Roethlisberger, out of purely bargain-hunting reasons ... another thing to take on a flawed human being that you respect, and if things go sideways, you don't feel so bad about it ...
A lot of us could do with a paycheck and a hug, too :- ) and many of us would be loyal employees for it...
