<p>I'd say so. Mind you, the lack of <b>-chu'</b> on the first one
doesn't mean it can't be all your money, just that you're not
specifying how much money is lost.<br>

<p>In this case, you'd have to find some other meaning for the <b>-chu'.</b>
I don't think you can divine its meaning here without further
context. The meaning of any <b>-chu'</b> is very dependent on its
context.<br>
