     Just a strong human with endless chess knowledge, the problem is
     you need endless money that way.
         The good old tried and tested book and manual chess board is
     the most cost effective way to learn. This way you have to put on
     your thinking cap, just as you would any other subject.
         You can't 'buy' chess playing strength any more than a body
     builder can 'buy' a big set of muscles. You have to sweat if you
     are to improve. No pain, no gain, whether you hope to improve
     physically or mentally.
         Just off topic a little here. You mentioned Bruce Pandolfini.
     This afternoon I watched a movie called 'Searching for Bobby Fischer'.
     Actor Ben Kingsley played the part of Pandolfini, the boy's tutor.
     $60 per hour!.and I don't know how old the movie is. Get a good
     chess book, find a place where you can study and go to it
