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 would pay $10,000 for an API that gives me the Linkedin company updates for any single company.
I would pay $10,000 for an API that gives me real-time Asian news (Korean, Japanese, Chinese) content that matches a keyword.
I would pay $10,000 for an API that classifies an article into a topic such as politics, tech, etc.
I would pay $10,000 for an API that shows me the annual/monthly trends for FB likes, Twitter followers, Instagram followers, and App Store downloads for public companies that are in the equity market so I can analyze these companies and buy/sell prior to earnings.
I would pay $10,000 for an API that gives me a stream of Instagram updates that have a certain keyword.
I would pay $10,000 for an API that gives me the social metrics, given an Instagram handle.
And yes, I work in the social marketing industry :)

This is super niche, but a service that takes a video upload (or youtube link) of a professional pool/billiards match and generates overhead shot diagrams for every shot of the match. Why do I want this? Diagramming shots is the most tedious part of making a book where you analyze shots from pro matches -- this has been done by hand before and sells for ~$50 -- https://www.amazon.com/Capelle-9-Ball-Archer-vs-Reyes/dp/096... . I've played with this a bit, taking photos of a table, doing transforms to get an overhead layout (with OpenCV perspective transforms and Hough detection), but it's never come out quite right. I also want motion tracking of balls so you can generate arrows for where the balls went, but honestly, just the static "balls at rest" diagrams would be worth it.

I'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.

I 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.

I would pay $10k for a share in an honest, low fee property investment. I can't afford losing liquidity to buy another whole property, but I'd like to invest a proportion of my savings against rental/commercial properties, as directly as possible, with as few intermediares and with many safeguards for bad times.

I'd pay $10,000 per eye to fix my crappy eyesight, its so bad that Lasik isn't an option for me.
I'd pay $10,000 for a self driving car, because I have crappy eyesight and can't actually drive a car.

A few things I suppose:
- 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)

Extremely competent, perfectionist healthcare. Ideally the money would directly fund studies and the program would offer opportunities to participate in studies as well. Focus should not just be on acute issues, but the smaller quirks that a lot of people have. As an aside, most medical doctors i've encountered have a very bad confidence/merit ratio.

Leads I can resell for $11,000. Sounds like a copout answer, but I basically pay Facebook $XXXk a month to do just that.

Farm land.
What service have you always wanted someone to provide, product have you always wanted someone to build, skill you have always wanted someone to teach you, that you would pay $10,000 today for?
Please don't say random things, especially if you don't have $10,000 to spend right now. The whole idea of this question is to try to potentially discover value and to price out those that want "Snapchat for dogs for $500".
Edit 1: Requests like "Lifetime Access for" also don't qualify as viable responses....for obvious reasons.
