Money made by breaking the law (6)
I believe the answer is:
wealth
'money' is the definition.
(someone's wealth is how much money they have)
'breaking the law' is the wordplay.
'breaking' indicates anagramming the letters.
'the'+'law'='thelaw'
'thelaw' with letters rearranged gives 'WEALTH'.
'made by' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for wealth that I've seen before include "State of luxury" , "Assets" , "was common under Cromwell" , "Possessions and resources" , "Material worth" .)
