** Remember that being worth $500 million means that is the value of everything she owns. It’s stated that her father was a shipping magnate so she likely inherited his share of the company. But that does not mean she actually has that much cash. She certainly lives a luxurious life, but not one of ridiculous wealth on par with what Quentin claims to have.

** It's possible most of the other people at the party know not to mess with Niccolo and whoever he's connected to and would never testify against him. As Quentin says "We don't use that word [Mafia} in Palermo." So they are probably all over the area and would intimidate or kill anyone who tried to speak out against them.

** This isn't entirely true: Albie and Portia go out to eat at the same restaurant as Greg and Tanya in Episode 2. And then there's Daphne and Harper's stay in Notto as well as the (disastrous) nights Tanya and Portia spend with their newfound "friends." But aside from that, it's likely most of the guests aren't actually that adventurous and tend to prefer the easier, safer option at the end of their day. Plus, it's convenient for the plot (not to mention production) and reinforces the idea of the White Lotus as a GildedCage for the ultra-rich. As for Lucia and Mia, they hang out at the hotel for business reasons in addition to living it up on Dom's money.
