My script doesn't seem to be working?

This is supposed to add money to the money int value in the leaderstats when it touched the brick at the end of my tycoon thingy. It was working, but not anymore? Any ideas?

game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
    local leaderstats = Instance.new("Model",player)
    leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
    local money = Instance.new("IntValue", leaderstats)
    money.Name = "Money"
    money.Value = 0
function addMoney(b)
    if b.Name == "MONEYBRICK" then
        money.Value = money.Value + 5
        if game.Workspace.UPGRADE1.Touched and b.Name == "MONEYBRICK" then
        money.Value = money.Value + 5
        end
    end
end
function buyupgrade1()
    if money.Value >= 50 then
        money.Value = money.Value - 50
    c = game.Lighting.UPGRADE1:Clone()
    wait(.5)
    c.Parent = game.Workspace
    game.Workspace.pp:Destroy()
    c.Transparency = 0.7
    wait(1)
    c.Transparency = 0.5
    wait(1)
    c.Transparency = 0.3
    wait(1)
    c.Transparency = 0 
    end
end
end)
game.Workspace.pp.Touched:connect(buyupgrade1)
game.Workspace.HITPART.Touched:connect(addMoney)

Have you tried taking the function addMoney() out of your PlayerAdded one? SquirreIOnToast 309 — 10y

^ Yes, you probably want to take it out of the 'PlayerAdded' Function. tanzane 100 — 10y

Try this. If it works, I'll explain it.

game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
    local leaderstats = Instance.new("IntValue",player)
    leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
    local money = Instance.new("IntValue", leaderstats)
    money.Name = "Money"
    money.Value = 0
end)

function addMoney(b)
    if b.Name == "MONEYBRICK" then --Is "b" a nil variable
        money.Value = money.Value + 5
        if game.Workspace.UPGRADE1.Touched and b.Name == "MONEYBRICK" then
        money.Value = money.Value + 5
        end
    end
end
function buyupgrade1()
    if money.Value >= 50 then
        money.Value = money.Value - 50
local c = game.Lighting.UPGRADE1:Clone()
    wait(.5)
    c.Parent = game.Workspace
    game.Workspace.pp:Destroy()
    c.Transparency = 0.7
    wait(1)
    c.Transparency = 0.5
    wait(1)
    c.Transparency = 0.3
    wait(1)
    c.Transparency = 0 
    end
end

game.Workspace.pp.Touched:connect(buyupgrade1)
game.Workspace.HITPART.Touched:connect(addMoney)

Thanks for everyones reponses, I got the problem fixed by removing some of the code from the main function. Lots of lessons learned here :P
