    I am going to go the opposite way from one of your other replies. I think they did not understand the risks due to their backgrounds at least the customers.

    Being rich it’s probably been a long time since they have been exposed to consequences of their actions. Or at least serious consequences. Especially the 19 y.o.

    Logically an action that is risky because it is inherently dangerous is different than one where the danger is punishment but people are not 100% rational beings. After all lots of people (not just rich ones) do stupid thing like overspeeding, dui etc and do not actually believe themselves to be in danger.

    Finally they might believe regulations to be useless because most of the time they are limiting them (their businesses) to protect other people.
