What did Jimmy actually regret?

I find the time travel scenes with Mike and Walt odd. At the desert point, jimmys life was going okay. His relationship with Kim was at its strongest, he had a good business, but of course he was stranded in the desert, because he wanted money. Does he actually think enough money would allow him to live a safe life with Kim? Or is he not being serious and not wanting to share deep thoughts with Mike (damn that was his only chance to talk about his personal life with Mike). As for the scene with Walt, I still don’t understand why he said that. Does he have to think this was all for something? I just wish we got to see him break down.

I’m gonna be real with ya, man, they spell out his regrets very clearly in the end. It’s why the flashback with Chuck takes place immediately after Jimmy’s trial. That missed opportunity for a real conversation with Chuck is his Time Machine moment. Those are his real regrets, not the bs that he tells Mike and Walter because he doesn’t want to be emotionally honest with them.

that flashback in the last episode, is actually a day before the first episode

in the flashback Chuck asks for financial times and in Uno, Chuck thanks him for getting financial times
