Why doesnt the script add money to the player?

Hey, i wanted to make a script where when the player touches a block he gets money.

But it doesnt work. It says that statis is a nil value.

What am i doing wrong in this code?

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)

local character = hit.parent
local stats = character:findFirstChild("leaderstats")	
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(character)

	if player then
		local money = stats:FindFirstChild("Cash")
		local add = 50
		money.Value = money.Value + add
		print(money.Value)
	end
	
	
end)

Your mistake is that you are trying to find "leaderstats" in the player's character. It is actually located in the player itself.

To find the player the character belongs to, you could use this:

--to find the leaderstats
game:GetService("Players"):FindFirstChild(character.Name).leaderstats
