title: Why can't I access this ng-model variable in my controller?
body: <p><a href="http://jsfiddle.net/ntszE/" rel="noreferrer">http://jsfiddle.net/ntszE/</a></p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;input type="text" placeholder="0" ng-model="deposit" value="4" /&gt;&amp;#8364; 
  alert('begin test');
  alert($scope.deposit);
  alert('end test');
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What am I doing wrong in binding the input value to a scope variable?</p>
