If you're reading this, and you're not already famous, the chances of you ever becoming a movie star are very slim. But that's not to say you can't have a pretty good claim to fame and make some money out of it at the same time. Your home, no matter what it looks like, would probably make a pretty good TV or film set for somebody.
Studio space comes at a premium for production companies, so it's often more attractive to them to outsource somewhere else. Your home doesn't have to be a palace; it can even be a small apartment and it will be the perfect location to fit the specifications of a script somewhere. You might have to clear off for a few days, or even a couple of months if it's being used for a major movie, but the compensation for your inconvenience will make up for it; the going rate is around $2,000 a day.
