If I'm old enough to buy a car, then I likely am having kids soon - so a 70 year time horizon means that my kids will be multi-millionaires when they are around 70, which doesn't do much for them. Maybe it'll do something for their children, who probably are in their 40's with kids of their own, but by then you are splitting things maybe three to six ways, so it's just a nice inheritance, not quick riches.
