That's not the point. When Walt admitted he had done everything for himself and not his family, the $70M wasn't a factor any more. He redeemed himself throughout the episode and left his family enough to survive him on. The other $70M represented his greed, which he threw aside when he admitted he did it for himself and he got one last look at his daughter.

I can't remember if it was IGN's review or if it was Talking Bad, but they said that Walt was universal. He represented most of us who had a chance at greatness and for some reason threw it away. When presented a second chance, he went full throttle and grabbed the brass ring.
