Interesting. What's the rationale for this?
- dietrichepp 10y agoThe doctrine of "consideration" means that both sides have to be getting something out of a contract, or else it is not a contract at all. Lots of people have argued for or against it, and the main rationale is probably just the fact that it is traditionally defined that way. This is why you often see people selling things for nominal values like $1 or whatever.
