Yeah, from the outside, this seems like a very poor outcome for Prigozhin. Regardless of what money or access or whatever was promised in return to standing down, he is effectively trapped in the non-Western economic block due to his actions in Ukraine. In this part of the world, anything you own is only as useful as your ability to prevent politically-connected people from taking it from you. I can't see how his position now could possibly be construed as more personally advantageous than 72 hours ago, but I'm sure there's much more happening behind the curtain than we will ever be aware of.
