1) I'm broke, so I've got to find a way to get some money.
Broke = have no money, so there's no reason to repeat yourself.
"I've to" is wrong in standard English. Use either "I have to" or "I've got to".
2) Don't try to gain money illicitly, otherwise you'll end up in prison.
"Unethical" has more of a moral than a legal meaning, so it sounded very unusual. There are far better choices of words.
Follow the clear patterns for conditionals. You can't go wrong.
