Best Answer

A "hill" of beans is how you plant them -- you put the seeds into a little hill of soil and the stems spread outward and downward. If something doesn't "amount" to that little hill of soil, it doesn't amount to much, or it's never going to be worth much. This idiom is saying that something or someone is never going to succeed or be profitable, or that a problem isn't as large as the person thinks it is.
