Avi K/DY:

See Igros Moshe YD 4:36:4 that says that the Rambam would allow taking money for Torah today:

Also, it should be noted that the Rambam was never against being supported by an individual, only the general public. The Rambam himself was supported for many years by his brother, who was a successful merchant, until his brother was lost at sea.
