Do we need friends in life?
I don't know how one defines a “friend” anymore. One thing I have understood for sure is that friendship is a phase, it ends one or the other day(by end I just mean people move to places or change colleges and are no more a part of your everyday life) and there is nothing to be sad about it because that's how it is.Most of the times you may fade away from each other's life but if you are lucky enough you might have few people with you who are just a call away from you and will listen to you patiently not just to give a reply but to understand your situation and what's going on in your life. And those are the kind of people are that supposed to be kept. If you call such people as friends then, hell yeah! you need to have friends. As long as such people help you grow, support you emotionally, understand your thought process and give you advices that genuinely help you become a better version of yourself ,you definitely need friends.If your definition of friends is a group of people you want to do drugs with,discuss people and not ideas,gossip about “that girl” or “that boy” etc I would say no you don't need friends. Because these “friends” will never help you grow.Solitude is another friend who doesn't pressurizes you to please him(I already apologize to feminists for using him) or keep him entertained. You can learn a lot from solitude,like loving yourself, exploring your capabilities. It's a savior when you need peace of time. The best thing about it is that you already know your problems and your situation so you don't have to spend time in doing the small talk before the actual talk! But solitude doesn't provide you with it's perspective so it's just you and only you.Human beings are social animals so it would be unfair to say that xyz great leaders and inventors liked to be alone so should you. For the tiny amount of time I have spent on earth I have learnt that there will be various occasions where you will either need someone desperately or want to be left alone to heal by yourself.So,do we need friends? It really depends on your definition of friends and your situation. But they do come in handy most of the times,so we need to choose them wisely.Hope that helps.
Do you need to have 20/20 vision to be a surgeon?
I have a bad sight myself. Its not really a pre-requisite to have a perfect vision. Though wearing glasses and having contacts has its disadvantages, esp. when your in the OR and operations are a bit long.But other than that its ok to wear glasses and contact. I would suggest you under LASIX surgery, its a laser procedure in correcting refractive lens. Check if you can undergo to this type of surgery.

Do you need a PhD to be a professor?
As most have stated, it’s tough without one in fields where research is king but not impossible.Freeman Dyson was at one time a physics professor at Cornell but only stayed two years before moving on to the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. Mr. Dyson is an outspoken critic of the PhD system:“Oh, yes. I’m very proud of not having a Ph.D. I think the Ph.D. system is an abomination. It was invented as a system for educating German professors in the 19th century, and it works well under those conditions. It’s good for a very small number of people who are going to spend their lives being professors. But it has become now a kind of union card that you have to have in order to have a job, whether it’s being a professor or other things, and it’s quite inappropriate for that. It forces people to waste years and years of their lives sort of pretending to do research for which they’re not at all well-suited. In the end, they have this piece of paper which says they’re qualified, but it really doesn’t mean anything. The Ph.D. takes far too long and discourages women from becoming scientists, which I consider a great tragedy. So I have opposed it all my life without any success at all.“Did he have success without one? Enough to be awarded:FRS (1952)[5]Heineman Prize (1965)Lorentz Medal (1966)Hughes Medal (1968)Harvey Prize (1977)Wolf Prize (1981)Andrew Gemant Award (1988)Matteucci Medal (1989)Oersted Medal (1991)Fermi Award (1993)Templeton Prize (2000)Pomeranchuk Prize (2003)Poincaré Prize (2012)But then again, what could he have achieved with one?
How many dozen doughnuts would you need to have a mole of donuts?
1 mole donuts = 5.02x10^21 dozen donuts ************ let's start with "what is a mole" think of 1 dozen donuts. A rectangular orange and white box of 1 dozen dunkin donuts. Open it up in your mind. What do you see? A couple of chocolate frosted. a glazed or two. etc. but there are exactly 12 donuts right? now think of a pair of shoes. Your favorite pair. Tennis shoes. dress shoes. high heels. Whatever. how many do you see? 2 right? how about a gross? a dozen dozen. 12 dozen.. 12x12... 144.. right? how about a bakers dozen? 13 etc. ********** the point is this. dozen, pair, gross, bakers dozen are all labels we give to a "quantity" of "something". We don't care what the something is as long as we have 12, 2, 144, and 13 we have a dozen, a pair, a gross, a bakers dozen, etc well.. a mole is the exact same thing...with a different number. a mole is 602,200,000,000,000,000,000,000 of anything. And we write that as 6.022x10^23 to prevent insanity and blindness. ok? 1 dozen donuts = 12 donuts 1 pair of aces = 2 aces 1 mole of donuts = 6.022x10^23 donuts 1 mole of aces = 6.022x10^23 aces. 1 mole of C atoms = 6.022x10^23 C atoms 2 dozen donuts = 2x12 = 24 donuts 2 moles donuts = 12.044x10^23 donuts 2 moles of people = 12.044x10^23 people. see how that works? it's not complicated. it's not rocket science. "mole" is simply a label for a quantity. Same as dozen and pair except the number is different *********** *********** now.. this problem... 1 mole donuts = 6.022x10^23 donuts 1 dozen donuts = 12 donuts... then.. via "dimensional analysis" (you need to learn this technique fyi)... 1 mole donuts x (6.022x10^23 donuts / mole donuts) x (1 dozen donuts / 12 donuts) = 5.02x10^21 dozen donuts ************ questions? ******* norrie... 1 dozen donuts = 12 donuts 1 mole donuts = 6.022x10^23 donuts 12 donuts ≠ 6.022e23 donuts but... 12 x 5.02x10^21 donuts = 6.022x10^23 donuts does that help?

Do you need a parent to get a fishing license?
Well the y do not need a parent just a state ID. Now how old are they? In most states if you are under 16 you do not need a license. Google your state and the words department of conservation. this will take you to your state's department of conservation website and you will be able to find all of the information you need there. Check to make sure that they even need a license. If they do, then all they need is a state issued photo ID. And they will be good to go.
Do you need a reason to be depressed?
There’s situational depression which is a biological/neurological response to the stress caused by unpleasant situations but there’s also clinical depression that’s caused by hormonal/chemical problems that have nothing to do with bad situations. The endorphins, dopamine or whatever just aren’t produced like they should, and/or mental illness can cause a person to obsess uncontrollably on the negative, which wears a person down into a state of ongoing clinical depression even if their life’s situation is quite good.
In what states do I need to have a front license plate?
In what states do I need to have a front license plate?You only need a front license plate on your car in the US if the state you are registering your vehicle in is one of these states:Image from https://www.cars.com/articles/20...If you register your cars in a Blue state, you must have a front license plate on your car regardless of where you drive the car.If you register your car in Texas, for example, you must have a front license plate on your car.

You may drive that NM registered car with no front plate in any of the blue states legally.
Do you need to have the product ready to get VC funding or it is enough to have the idea and the team together?
Generally, unless you have real evidence that your business model is valid (i.e. at least initial sales), there is no logic in creating financial projections. The reason is that it will all be based on assumptions, which are usually very far from reality. If you don't have real evidence that validates your business model, then you only need to focus on a detailed budget. Serious investors anyhow won't "buy" a detailed financial projection at this stage. Now getting into more details, your question includes two very different scenarios. The first one is pitching to VCs for a seed round. The second one is pitching to VCs for a Round A. In the first scenario (i.e. pitching for a seed round), you'd probably be better focusing on angel investors rather than VCs. VCs tend to invest only when the business model has been validated, and this usually only happens after seed funding (and kudos if you already are without any funding). Therefore, focus on creating a detailed budget, since angel investors would want to know what's your burn rate (i.e. how fast you're going to burn their money). In the second scenario (i.e. pitching for Round A money), you must have already validated your business model. Otherwise, you have almost no chance getting any money. Assuming you already have strong evidence that validates your business model, then it's about time to build a serious business plan. At this stage, you should already know your Customer Acquisition Cost and the Customer Life Time Value. You should also have good matrices that can help you project your future growth rate. With all this information in hand, you can quite easily project into the future and convince investors that your projection is realistic. And one last tip. The most important worksheet in your financial projection is the Assumptions one. You should have a detailed and separate assumptions worksheet, that would allow investors to easily see the logic behind the numbers, and play with the assumptions in order to test different scenarios.
