Would you pay $10 a month + (some budget you determine) to receive a "You're doing X this weekend" type email/calendar invite . It would be complete with instructions of what you need to do, where you need to be and what it is. Thoughts?

I think it could be free and you could monetize from businesses who need customers.

Agreed.

https://betterexplained.com might be worth checking out.

this website is great, but I want to have someone to explain the latest papers to me.

You mean, you want someone to explain to you a recent scientific paper about something? "Vulgarization as a service" or "crowd sourcing vulgarization", that might be an idea.

I figured that I lack leadership/social skills. I would pay $1000-$2000 over an year for helping me develop a few of these skills and help me earn an extra 10k-20k per year at my day job. I am at staff engineer level now. Essentially, I am looking for mentor/coach. If interested, send email to iamanonymouscoward@gmail.com

I would pay $50/Month to get real valuable leads on businesses/owner that are considering selling their online product based SAAS business.

There's two options for this (although, not $50 / month):

- Opportunity Overload: http://opportunityoverload.com/

- FE International is a broker that does this: http://feinternational.com/

I would pay $45/month for an stock options trading course.

What would you want to learn from this course? Are you looking for a strategy or an explanation on how options/spreads/etc. work or something else entirely?

A slightly different model, but Meetup.com lets you do this for free.
