[SOLVED] When I add to an IntValue it displayes the wrong number?

Sorry if the title is vague. My issue is that I have a script that gives a player cash every x amount of seconds. It adds it, but it adds the wrong number? When I check the amount in leaderstats and in the folder its in it displays the correct amount, but the script starts back from 1000.

I have a data save script, wondering if it has anything to do with that?

script in issue: (Not local script, located within StarterCharacterScripts)

local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(script.Parent)
local team = game:GetService("Teams")['banker']
local civCheck = 50
local bankCheck = 150
local cash = player.leaderstats.cash.Value

while true do
	if player.Team == team then
		cash = cash + bankCheck
		print(cash)
	else
		cash = cash + civCheck
		print(cash)
	end
	wait(5)
end

data save script: (Not local script, located within ServerScriptService) Note: this is only the data save portion of the scrript

	local plrID = "Player_" .. player.UserId
	local data = DataStore:GetAsync(plrID)
	if data then
		moolah.Value = data['cash']
		C4Count.Value = data['count']
		owned.Value  = data['owned']
	else
		moolah.Value = 1000
		C4Count.Value = 0
		owned.Value = false
	end
	player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
		char.Humanoid.Died:Connect(function(Died)
			local creator = char.Humanoid:FindFirstChild("creator")
			local leaderstats = creator.Value:FindFirstChild("leaderstats")
			if creator ~= nil and creator.Value ~= nil then
				time.Value = 30
				player.leaderstats.Wanted.Value = true
			end
		end)
	end)
end
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(cashhandle)

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
	local dataToSave = {
		count = player.count.Value,
		cash = player.leaderstats.cash.Value,
		owned = player.bikeOwned.Value
	}
	local plrID = "Player_" .. player.UserId
	local success, err = pcall(function()
		DataStore:SetAsync(plrID, dataToSave)
	end)
	if success then
		print("Data Saved!")
	else
		print("Data Save Error!!")
	end
end)
