local Character=script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Character
local Build=script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Workspace.Build
wait(1)
Character.OwnsBuild.Changed:connect(function()
    local table = game.Workspace:GetChildren()
    for i,v in pairs (table) do
        if v.Name == "Build" then
            print("Model Detected")
            if v.Owner.Value ==("Player") then
                print(v.Owner.Value)
                local Cashtie=v.Cash
                print(Cashtie)
                script.Parent.Text="Cash: $"..Cashtie.Value
                Cashtie.Changed:connect(function(NewValue)
                    if Cashtie.Parent.Owner.Value==script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent then
                        script.Parent.Text="Cash: $" ..NewValue
                    end
                end)
           else
            print(v.Owner.Value)
            end
        end
    end
end)

My problem is that nothing is running after the line if v.Owner.Value ==("Player") then however after else it prints Player. Someone help? This script is located inside of the text button inside of Playergui btw.

If you were attemping to bold your text it should look like this: " **Text**. This is just for your formatting, koolkid8099 705 — 8y

== ("Player") is comparing the Owner.Value with a string value, I think you mean to compare it against the player Instance. DevSean 270 — 8y

Its if the string value is "Player" Volodymyr2004 293 — 8y

        --[[
        since Owner is an ObjectValue, comparing it with a string always returned false
        instead you needed v.Owner.Value.Name == "Player"
        --]]
                print(v.Owner.Value)
                local Cashtie=v.Cash
                print(Cashtie)
                script.Parent.Text="Cash: $"..Cashtie.Value
                Cashtie.Changed:connect(function(NewValue)
                    if Cashtie.Parent.Owner.Value==script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent then
