Simple Definition
Total loss means something is completely destroyed or lost. It can happen unexpectedly and can cause a lot of financial damage. For example, if a car is in an accident and can't be fixed, it's considered a total loss. Insurance can help cover the cost of a total loss. There are different types of losses, like direct loss which happens right away, and consequential loss which happens because of the damage. It's important to be careful and try to prevent total losses from happening.
