Morphology
The meaning 'a very large amount of money' is directly derivable from the constituents: 'loads' (a large quantity) + 'of' (linking) + 'money' (wealth). This quantifier + of + noun pattern is a common, compositional construction in English (and parallels exist in many languages), so a B1 learner who knows the words will readily understand it.
Etymology
Loads of money comes from the word loads, which means heavy piles or full carts. Imagine many carts filled with money, so it clearly means 'a very large amount of money'.
