What is a promise that is generally not a valid consideration?
A promise to make a gift is generally not considered valid consideration because it lacks the necessary elements of a contract, such as mutual exchange or a legal detriment. In contract law, consideration must involve something of value exchanged between parties, and a mere promise to give something without receiving anything in return does not meet this requirement. Therefore, promises to make gifts are typically unenforceable as contracts.
