I doubt they're going to come out with a monthly fee. -blam!-, it's 60 bucks a year (maybe more now?) just for Gold (if you buy a year at a time, I dread to learn what the monthly fee adds up to).
I think they're going to work off of strictly retail sale, as well as a heavily marketed campaign of Destiny swag (hats, shirts, jackets, pens, condoms, etc.).
They would lose a LOT of their dedicated fans, many of whom are college kids who (on the whole) probably don't want to have to cut into their funds to dole out a monthly fee to play the next game.
I think, considering how long it's been in production/design, and how well games developed for many years (excluding Duke Nukem Forever... *shudder*) usually turn out... I think they'll do well enough to be able to (maybe?) host servers for some sort of MMOFPS, if that is indeed what they're planning on.
And if they're not making an MMOFPS, then that's just less money they have to put into servers and more money they can give to the hardworking employees and invest back into the company.
TL;DR
No monthly fee, fools.
