ORIGINAL: Iamsemisweet An enforceable contract requires an offer, acceptance and consideration. Consideration means, for example. X will pay you 5K a year to be shirtless at all times. In the absence of consideration, it isn't a contract, it is prefactory. So, what is the consideration for you being shirtless at all times? Having said that, I have a hard time imagining a court enforcing such an agreement. Could be interesting, though. Yay, my vanilla ice cream cone went away! You forgot that a contract must be concerning legal actions. For instance, if I were to sign a contract to deliver an illegal substance and reneged, it is unenforcable. (no problem with the subject matter here). As for consideration, one of the most common is "love and affestion" Consideration doesn't have to be tangible to be real. Congrads on the loss of your ice cream cone.
