large amount

More than enough

A large amount is a substantial quantity of something, typically something uncountable or abstract: a large amount of money, a large amount of time, a large amount of effort.

The phrase applies to mass nouns; for countable things, "large number" is standard, though this distinction blurs in casual speech.
