Should P Diddy's Son give back the scholarship?

[Xavier]

Not sure if anyone is following this story but there are some saying that P Diddy's Son should not take the money because his father can afford it. I disagree...he worked for it and it shows the value of hard work...what to you think?

<span style="font-weight: bold">Justin Combs Scholarship: P Diddy's Son, Gets $54,000 UCLA Football Scholarship </span>
LOS ANGELES -- Justin Combs, the 18-year-old son of hip-hop mogul Sean &quot;Diddy&quot; Combs, will attend UCLA on a $54,000 football scholarship.

It is one of 285 athletic scholarships the university hands out every year.

But it comes at a time when student fees are rising and a year after the university had to use more than $2 million in student fees to cover an athletic department funding gap.

UCLA says, however, that athletic scholarships are funded by ticket sales, corporate partnerships, media contracts and private donations.

And Justin Combs has defended the scholarship in a tweet, saying he put the work in.

Of course not after Diddy not that rich de amount of pickeny dem whey him have. Do you believe rich people doan accept their social security check when they reach 65 or tek out Medicare when they eligible? Me hear say Regan was getting him SS check and why not him werk for eh. That's is why the rich will always be rich. Diddy have a lot of children him doan have money like rat sh**t like some people who still accept social security and medicare.

it's quite possible that the kid is trying to make it on his own &quot;terms&quot;, without the help of his father.

he worked for it and he earned it. the scholarship was merit based.

what kind of message is being sent if he has to return the money ?

if him was like paris hilton people would be cussing him how him wutliss. big old hawseback ooman like paris still a spin round like gig.


similar thing happened to Denzel (who donated the tuition to a student), however diddy not obligated to do anything.

If he earned it, why shouldn't he keep it? Didn't Rockefeller did collect him social security even though him neva need it?
