  Suggesting an easy mindless thing such as buying a lottery ticket over writing an essay seems like poor advice, and modeling that kind of attitude and behavior as a father could lead to a lazy drop- out of the author's very own. Savings, university scholarships and government funds are undoubtly the best, first route to funding college, but for me, the extra effort towards competing for scholarships is worth a few hundred words of my own.

  I am also a user of fastweb. I think the article really reflects what fastweb is doing advertising other companies. It has very less to with providing scholarship and more to do with providing users/content/costumers for other websites/companies. I think google should learn from fastweb on how to trick students to click on their ads.

  I too have surfed and applied to numerous scholarships on the FastWeb site for the past two years (maybe more!). I have yet to be awarded ANY scholarship funds from ANY source! After frustrating searches, applications, essays, and contests, I went to the government sources as well as my university and have been awarded several scholarships after only seven months. I have given up on FastWeb.
