- The president Luis Cardenal of National Association of Private Company is LOADED because he steals the money to from the companies.- My good father is in the bar, he's LOADED. (in the bar.... it sounds like he is at a place that sells alcohol. I believe you say is a member of the bar, or he is a lawyer)
- Maroon 5 will come next year, it will be a LOAD OF CRAP/RUBBISH. (not sure if that is what you meant)

- I have to review A SHITLOAD OF exams, I'm tired! EXCELLENT use of shitload A+
- I'm too upset to go out with Alex, he's a FREELOADer. (doesn't pay his share)
- I just finished the concert, it's A LOAD OFF MY MIND/CHEST. ( Could I say "He just finish the concert, it's a load off his mind", changing the possessive adjective?) Load off my back, chest, mind, are all good. I think load off my back is popular)
- I LOADED the car with petrol. (petrol is very English, in America it is gas or fuel when referring to your car and not the oil market)

[1] The expression "get something off your chest" means something slightly different - it means telling someone something that you have been keeping secret, or something that has been 'weighing you down'. You wouldn't use it in this context.
[2] This is grammatically correct, however you would say "fill the car with petrol". You could say "I loaded the car with suitcases", for example.
Well done Luisa, I enjoyed your sentences :)
