Re: ProfessorMD indicated he wanted his INTC position to benefit his children and grandchildren. He may not ever sell. If so, he won't benefit from share price appreciation during his lifetime.

But his children and grandchildren will. Your talking about a certain contrived situation where shares go into a trust that is never disturbed forever and ever, and the only income are from the dividends. If that were ProfMD's investing strategy, I would strongly recommend he sell his INTC stock and purchase a stock with a larger dividend. I think most INTC investors would prefer that INTC management increase the value of their shares.
