Did u try getline instead ?

No, its not even reading from the file i dont think. Its supposed to load the stuff then set it all but id doesnt

And the file is definitely not empty...?
Contents look something like this:
1
2
3
 
joe
blo
9999
?
Other than explicitly closing the file after each case I cant think of what's wrong...though it's not in a loop...

Nevermind i figured it out i outputted data like this

file << Pname << endl;
file << Cname << endl;
file << money << endl;

and was trying to read it in like this

file >> money;
file >> Pname;
file >> Cname;

Ok grrr i got a new problem. So the data is written correctly but not loaded correctly still. I load the game and it should say "welcome Chay Hawk to America" but instead it says welcome Chay to Hawk. ?? why is that? i think its reading the white space and skipping or something. how do i fix that?

Oh man, I've got to get my eyes checked out!!!
The order of 36, 37, 38 doesn't match 45, 46, 47. Namely, the types don't match. The first insertion operator on line 45 attempts to put the string (name) into the integer (money) and 'file' crashes there (gracefully).
