An uncle, in writing, promised his nephew 5,000 if his nephew would refrain from drinking, using tobacco, swearing, and playing cards or billiards for money until the age of twenty-one, all of which was otherwise legal for the nephew to do at the time. Would this agreement need to be in writing to satisfy the statute of frauds and be enforced?
 
  a. Yes, because the consideration is 5,000, which is more than 500
  b. Yes, if the nephew will not become twenty-one within a year
  c. Yes, because all contracts must be in writing to be enforced
  d. No, because there is no valid agreement. However, even if the agreement is not valid, it will be enforced as long as it is in writing and signed by both parties.
