I need to setup a timed event, weekly, that will create a node or "billable event" based on a given pricing schedule (values on another node) and based on a date in another field on a different content type. And now if that wasn't confusing enough, I need for only the specific user to be able to see it. I'm open to any ideas as I really have no idea where to begin.

I will suggest using these modules: https://drupal.org/project/nodeaccess (to restrict node access per role or per user) https://drupal.org/project/elysia_cron (flexible cron jobs)
Create separate cron job with flexible schedule where you can put all you custom logic with related nodes.
