    can u fix this black jack code

    this black jack game works but when u bust it exits the box.

    Code:
    #include<iostream.h>
    #include<time.h>
    #include<stdlib.h>
    
    
    //Isaac Gibbs 
    //BlackJack that is going to work but this is our first time back on the computers since January
    //nice one Pedro, killing Bobs ghost but thats ok now
    
    int main(void)
    {
    
    	int money = 500, money1, card1, card2, cardy, cardd = 16;//money is the amount of money that you start with, money1 is the amount of money that you gamble on, card1 is you first card, card2 is your second card, card3 is any extra card that you might want like if you want to hit or something, cardd is the combined cards of the dealer, cardy are your cards.
    	char hit, play, quit;//hit is if you want a hit or not, play is if you want to play or not, quit is if you want to quit or not
    
    	srand((unsigned)time(NULL));// signs a random interger to a nullified time so when ever in others words it enables random intergers
    	
    	cout << "This is a Blackjack game!\n";
    	cout << "You will never beat me hahahahaha.\n";
    	cout << "Do you want to play y or n???\n";//asking if player wants to actually play
    	cin >> play;//using the character play to ask if they		
    	
    	if (play == 'y'){
    		cout << "So, how much money do you feel like losing today? You start with "<< money <<"\n";
    	}
    	
    		while (play == 'y'){
    			card1 = 2+rand()%10;//card1 is two plus a randomized interger up to Eleven
    			card2 = 2+rand()%10;//card2 is two plus a randomized interger up to eleven 
    			cout << "You have "<< money <<" dollars.\n";
    			cout << "HELLO put in your bet amount!!!!! \n";
    			cin >> money1;//the amount of money that you want to bet
    
    			if (money == 0)//if money equals zero 
    				{cout << "Sorry you have no more money...You lose.\n";//then this is displayed
    				return main();}//the program restarts itself
    	
    			if (money1 > money)//if the money if higher than than it says this
    				{cout << "You don't have that much money!!!\n";
    				return main();//returns to the top of the program
    				cout << "\n";}
    	
    				cout << "You have chosen "<< money1 <<" dollars.\n";
    				money = money - money1;//money equals the amount of money you bet minus the money you started off with
    				cout << "You have "<< money <<" dollars left to your name.\n";//prints out how much money that you have left
    				cout << "Your cards are "<< card1 <<", and "<< card2 <<".\n";//deals cards
    				cardy = card1 + card2;//totals the cards that you have
    					if (cardy > 21)//if the sum of the cards is over 21 then 
    						{	cout << "Sorry you busted... You lose.\n";//it tells you that you lose
    						return 0;}//stops program 
    					else 
    						cout << "They add up to "<< cardy <<", would you like a hit y or n?\n";//the add up to a card number
    						cin >> hit;//if you to hit this is the variable
    	
    							while (hit == 'y'){//while hit eqauls y then all this happens
    								card1 = 2+rand()%10;//card1 is two plus a randomized interger up to Eleven
    								cout << "Your next card is "<< card1 <<".\n";
    								cardy = card1 + cardy;//it adds up to the total of the two cards that you had before
    								if (cardy > 21)//again if the card equals anything higher than 21 then this is displayed
    									{	cout << "Sorry you busted. you lose all your money...\n";
                                         return 0;}
    								else
    										cout << "They add up to "<< cardy <<", would you like a hit y or n?\n";//the add up to a card number
    										cin >> hit;}//if you to hit this is the variable}//program ends
    				
    								cardd = 15+rand()%6;//the dealer cards equal a random number from 15 to 21
    								cout << "The Dealer has "<< cardd <<".\n";
    
    	if (cardd > cardy)//if the dealer card number is higher than yours than you lose
    	{	cout << "The Dealer wins!!!\n";
    		cout << "You have a total of "<< money <<" dollars hold on to it!\n";}
    	
    	if (cardd == cardy)//if your card equals the card of the dealer you lose anyway
    	{	cout << "The Dealer wins!!!\n";
    		cout << "You have a total of "<< money <<" dollars hold on to it!\n";}
    	
    	if (cardy > cardd)//if your cards are higher than the dealers cards you win   
    	{	cout << "The Player wins!!!\n";
    		money = money + 2 * money1;//the money you bet is doubled plus the rest of the money you had
    		cout << "You have a total of "<< money <<" dollars hold on to it!\n";}
    	
    	cout << "Do you want to play again, y or n???\n";//asks if you want to play again
    	cin >> quit;//character for quiting 
    	
    	if (quit == 'n')//if quit equals "n" then it starts from the beginning
    	{	cout << "I told you that you couldn't win!!!\n";//if quit equals "y" then this is printed 
    	return 0;}//and then the progrom ends
    	}
    return 0;//end program
    }

    Code:
    						{	cout << "Sorry you busted. you lose all your money...\n";
                                         return 0;}
    I didn't run it, but the return 0 there will probably end the program.

    Also, you shouldn't recursively call main (it is illegal in C++). Put the code into a different function and recursively call that.
