That's only assuming the stock market remains stable throughout 1 lifetime. Lets use two lifetimes at 75 years each as a baseline for looking at the US stock market. Over the last 150 years how many times have there been major economic troubles? Has there been market and currency stability in the US for such long stretches of time?

Now extend that to 10 lifetimes, as per the initial post, that's 750 years, you are talking about a stretch of time before the stock market was even a thing. Pretty sure a nation collapsing would wipe out your investment account.
