To answer a question on the page: "I'm not sure how transferring apps from one Apple ID to another works. We can figure it out though." I'm fairly sure this is impossible. I know people (with large apps and the right contacts) that have tried, and never heard of it being possible. Unless something changed recently. You could transfer the account (unless other apps are also on it).
Not to be a jerk. I really wish you well. But I'm curious: it would cost over $100k to make a todo list app? I would think that would be one of the simplest apps you could possibly make. Am I missing something?
[hmm... didn't see that your rate was $1000/hour. That answers part of my question.]
Does he really charge $1000/hour or is it a joke I didn't get? http://hire.samsoff.es/ edit: explanation http://soff.es/one-thousand-dollars-an-hour By that rate and the 800-hour figure, Cheddar would be one of the most expensive apps ever (utility vs cost).

If you're about to start a startup, I'd strongly encourage you to come up with some hypothetical figures for these metrics:
* Number of monthly uniques
* Percentage that will convert to trial
* Percentage that will convert to paid
* Average monthly subscription cost
* Churn rate
* Cost of acquisition
You'll be way off, but run the numbers you've made up past as many experienced founders as you can, and you might be able to come up with a model that's semi-realistic. Of course it will evolve over time as you get some real data and more experience, but the main point of the exercise is to then ask yourself questions like: "How can I get X0,000 uniques to my marketing site on a $0 marketing budget?", and "What can I change about my product/positioning/target market so I can triple my average monthly subscription cost?".
>This price is $125,000. I think that's a steal for what you get... If you were to hire me or anyone else to make Cheddar for you, it would be much more expensive. Not to be a jerk.

- Lawyers
- Dentists
- Doctors
- Notarys
But charging $1000/h for making trivial things is making the rest of us look bad. Especially when people do projects with 10000000 times the difficulty... for free.

I don't mind him charging that price to - Lawyers - Dentists - Doctors - Notarys But charging $1000/h for making trivial things is making the rest of us look bad. Especially when people do projects with 10000000 times the difficulty... for free.

Thats imho the wrong way to look at compensation. People are not being paid by the difficulty of their projects but by the value of the problems they solve. Being a construction worker is certainly a lot more physically demanding than an office job. Still they are (usually) paid a lot less because they are easier replaceable, less training, etc.
