I'd pay $10k to figure out what exactly is wrong with my body. I've had constant injuries or issue with my shoulder, knee, and back for the past 5 years. Feels like I'm falling apart due to old age but I'm not even past 25 yet.

I don't feel like any of these ideas are worth $10k to most people, to be perfectly honest. 10k for a LI api to a company page? I don't get it.
You are most likely right, but OP was asking what was worth $10K to me personally, not what I thought would be worth $10K to others :) Just giving my domain-specific 2 cents.

#43I'm aware of luxury services that provide similar services, but I would pay 10k for a matchmaking service that could guarantee a lifetime connection with partner. It could be a service that goes the extra mile in terms of discovery to find someone compatible in terms of values, interests and hobbies, etc.

#44I do a lot of freelancing but I have difficulty dealing with clients while doing the heavy lifting of tech work. Programming can be emotionally exhausting, and it's worse when dealing with clients who are manipulative. I'd gladly pay $10,000 for someone who could just handle sales and customer service for a project that pays $20,000 or more.

#45- A mentor: I guess what Mark Hanna was to Jordan Belfort - I'm an undergraduate and just starting out my career, it would be cool to have a good, close friend who has experience, has a large network, etc, and would be willing to show me the ropes
- A financial advisor: A bit similar to the latter, a good friend who shares knowledge with me about finance, is open to endless questions, helps me with my finances (investing, etc)

Want to exchange information? I can provide at least 3 of those APIs almost immediately. Working in the same industry, pretty solid technology.

Maybe get tested for kissing bug disease (assuming you are American). It can significantly impact the joints and is seldom tested for.
If you have it, I take PayPal.;)
