The correct answer to this open question is the following.
We assume that you want to know the meaning of Ludwig van Beethoven's quote "Recommend virtue to your children; it alone, not money, can make them happy. I speak from experience."
If that is so, then, here is the explanation.
Beethoven recommended that one of the first and most important things parents have to teach their children is virtue, which means having high ethical and moral standards to act upon in life. Without these high standards of living, people tend to act egotistically, just thinking about their own material possessions and benefits, which in turn make them greedy, and in consequence, unhappy people.
For Beethoven, money was did not mean happiness. To do the things you love and helping others to do the same that is there for a happy life. Thousands of wealthy people live are not happy and they never will.
