Jesus did not pay His disciples. In fact, He cautioned them about the cost of following Him: Luke 9:58 - And Jesus said to him, "Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head." Luke 14:27-30 - And whoever does not bear his cross and come after Me cannot be My disciple. For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first and count the cost, whether he has enough to finish it lest, after he has laid the foundation, and is not able to finish, all who see it begin to mock him, saying, 'This man began to build and was not able to finish.' However, we are also told that Jesus and his disciples did keep a small sum of money for emergency purposes, although we do not know who donated it. This 'purse' was kept by Judas Iscariot, and the gospels record that he would help himself to the money from time to time. However, whether this is true or not or a further slur after his betrayal of Chrisw, we do not know. Otherwise, Jesus and his disciples relied on the generosity of others to live, rather frugally, in their three year mission, and so the disciples were not paid a 'wage' of any sort.
