Hit the jackpot with emoticon illustrating wealth (4,4,5)
I believe the answer is:
come into money
'hit the jackpot' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.
'emoticon illustrating wealth' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
an anagram of 'emoticon' is 'comeinto' which is within the answer.
'wealth' could be 'money' (money is a kind of wealth) and 'money' is present in the answer.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'with' is the link.
