Depends which RPGM you are using.
if you got RM2K3, which i didn't bother checking if this is also valid in RM2K, then just go to timer operations and set the timer to the stuff you want, put the event on autostart, and make sure  has a switch on and a second page so it doesnt repeatedly set your timer, and on the second page make it so the prerequisites are the switch, and another page with the prereqs as the timer going off AND the switch, and make it give you money and reset the timer.

i dunno if that works but it should.

It would probably be better not to use a timer. Anyway, make a common event, and set it to parallel process. Add a wait command to the common event to wait 30 minutes or something. At the end of the wait command, make a bunch of conditional branches. Branch for every rank.

Basically, make something like this...

wait 30 minutes.
if [rank] = 1
 - add 1000 gold
if [rank]= 2
 - add 900 gold
(add more ranks)


You could also add a message command in every brank saying you just got paid, but it may mess up cut scenes if you do this. Adding a sound effect when you get paid will be nice.

You can change the rank however you want.
