Solution : The correct answer is the second option.
In this sentence, the phrase "no doubts necessary" is not grammatically correct and doesn't convey the intended meaning. To express certainty that wealth is necessary for happiness, we should use the singular form of doubt . Thus, the phrase "is no doubt necessary" is appropriate to use in order to convey the intended meaning.
Therefore, the correct sentence would be: Wealth is no doubt necessary for happiness in life.
