Unless you’re really desperate, it just seems like a bad idea to sign any kind of non-standard contract for $10. There’s always a chance that you’re misunderstanding the terms, or that the contract gets challenged at some point, or even that your signature on the contract is used as blackmail. Maybe you’re trying to run for office or get a job at some point in the future, and the fact that you’ve sold your soul is used against you. The actual contract that Jacob references is long enough that even taking the time to read and understand it is worth significantly more than $10. Even with the simpler contract that you’re envisioning, who knows what kind of implications it has? It’s just not worth exposing yourself to these risks for the price of a burrito.

Yeah, I think these are good points.
