But then he wouldn't have granted my wish at all, since I wished for the knowledge of the best use of two wishes. I would demand my money back.

If we're talking about the "not going to screw you" sort of genie, a la Disney's Aladdin, then I'd say, "Look, let's make a deal. If you agree to perform four wishes for me once you are freed, then I will free you with my first wish." It's win, win, right?
