Akeiyla entered the University of California two years ago at the age of 18. California law prohibits a person below the age of 21 years from consuming alcohol and provides for penalties to be imposed on one who violates the prohibition. At the time, her Uncle Dashawn, concerned about reports of excessive drinking by college students, promised her that if she did not drink any alcoholic beverages in her first year at the university, he would give her $5,000 at the end of that year. Akeiyla thanked Uncle Dashawn, stating that it would be easy money because she hated the taste of alcohol. Akeiyla did not consume any alcohol during her first year of college. When she reported this to Uncle Dashawn at the end of the year and asked for her reward, he said, "I have changed my mind about giving you the money. Don't be disappointed. Sobriety is its own reward." Was Uncle Dashawn free to change his mind, or is he contractually obligated to pay his niece? Support your answer with a legally sound argument.
