Why isn't the text script not working properly?

Ok so, I have this local script where there would be text and next to the text would be the amount of money the player has and the problem is that the text is dissapearing every time the number or amount changes into a different number that the player has in it's leaderstats (or Leaderboard). please help me how to fix this.

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer or game.Players.PlayerAdded:Wait()
local leaderboard = player:WaitForChild("Leaderboard")
local cash = leaderboard.Cash
local value = script.Parent

value.Text = "Funds: "..cash.Value

cash:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Value"):Connect(function()
	value.Text = cash.Value
end)

Note: This script is placed in StarterGui not in ServerScriptService

Just repeating that this is a Local Script not a Script

change line 9 to ... value.Text = "Funds: "...cash.Value

When the text changes and the signal detects it, it only changes to the cash value.

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer or game.Players.PlayerAdded:Wait()
local leaderboard = player:WaitForChild("Leaderboard")
local cash = leaderboard.Cash
local value = script.Parent

value.Text = "Funds: "..cash.Value

cash:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Value"):Connect(function()
    value.Text = "Funds: "..cash.Value
end)

I hope this helps. Let me know if it doesn't. I'd be glad to help.

I already had the answer at the comments but sure he's some free reputation points anyway for actually getting it right anyway.
