Well, it really depends on what you will use you paypal for. Most merchants accept payments only from verified users, so it might be good to verify if you want to order products online. Another benefit of being verified is your withdrawal daily limit will be lifted. Hope this helps.

It's not really required to verify it but you won't be able to cash out your money from paypal. I mean, if you're comfortable making transactions online and don't plan on cashing out your earnings from paypal then you don't need to verify it.
