A burglar broke into Mike's house and as a result, Mike lost a huge amount of money.
Is it better to replace the bolded part with "Mike suffered a great loss of money? Thanks.

Thanks, Mister.
Got it.
But could you revise the second option so that it may sound good? Thanks.

Then could I sum up that Mike suffered a great loss of money?
