When Christ said to the apostles "leave all and follow me" there were no groups of supportive donors, there was no visible means of making a living. It was like saying quit your day job, and eat with and pray with and follow me for three years.
These people had families to support! It was all God - God in Christ calling them, to follow after Christ, Christ their reward, God promising to provide for them and their families, God being their all in all. Everything was to be wrapped up in God.
