I am also late getting started, no big changes yet, but I plan on remaining optimistic during the rough times. People tend to oversell BTC when they should be buying, so the current distress is an opportunity for many others.
I think you did the right thing, even though it's late to invest in btc, of course it doesn't matter, the important thing is that you stay optimistic and now of course you have a good chance because soon there will be a btc halving,
and in my opinion it is better to invest in btc than nothing, so your decision is very good friend.
At the end of the day, you are right, that's what matters the most. OP is investing in BTC and it is a good step, especially compared to not having any investments at all. Being optimistic and enduring the situation of the economy helps a lot in maintaining a good status in btc. Also, it is right to turn distress to opportunity as it will be the best decision that will have a good outcome in the future.
