He knows he's ruined lives. But in the grand scheme of things, he got off incredibly light. Hank was killed off without getting closure while Walt had a full episode to tie up loose ends. Jesse was distanced from his family, lost a best friend, and had 2 girls he cared about killed (one... COMPLETELY innocent). Walt didn't lose anybody... just a brother-in-law he didn't care about protecting until the last minute.

Walt was allowed to have an epiphany and fix everything wrong without any majorly devastating event to trigger it. He got off light. I think it would have been a much more complex ending if he had to die knowing that one of his loose ends that really mattered to him weren't tied up.
Ending was just about perfect.
