I just answered my own question, but would this be it?

function guildLoot_OnEvent(self, event, msg)
if event == "ADDON_LOADED" then
keepVarTot = keepVarTot or 0
else
if event == "CHAT_MSG_MONEY" then
local _, guild = msg:match( "(.+)%((.+)%)" )

local gold = guild:match(goldLoot) or 0
local silver = 	guild:match(silverLoot) or 0
local copper = guild:match(copperLoot) or 0
			
keepVarTot = (keepVarTot or 0) + (gold*1000) + (silver*100) + copper
			
lootAmounts:SetText("You have looted " .. GetCoinTextureString( keepVarTot ) .. " for your guild bank." )
elseif event == "PLAYER_LOGOUT" then
keepVarTot = keepVarTot or 0
end
end
end

prolly not..

        local gold = guild:match(goldLoot) or 0
        local silver =     guild:match(silverLoot) or 0
        local copper = guild:match(copperLoot) or 0

        local currentTotal = (gold*1000) + (silver*100) + copper

oh yes, you can mix logic and math together like that :)

## SavedVariablesPerCharacter: currentTotal

elseif event == "PLAYER_LOGOUT" then
		currentTotal = true
	end

1x GuildLoot-0.1\GuildLoot.lua:36: attempt to perform arithmetic on a boolean value

Locals:
self = guildLoot {
0 = <userdata>
}
event = "CHAT_MSG_MONEY"

currentTotal = (currentTotal or 0) + getNew

local getNew =  (gold*1000) + (silver*100) + copper

local currentTotal = (currentTotal or 0) + (gold*1000) + (silver*100) + copper

I have been trying to get my variable saved, but it just won't happen.

In my .toc it is:

## SavedVariablesPerCharacter: currentTotal

and to save it i tried:

elseif event == "PLAYER_LOGOUT" then
		currentTotal = true
	end

But it just reload's at the restart of the AddOn.

if event == "VARIABLES_LOADED" then
	if arg1 == "GuildLoot" then
		print("GuildLoot has been loaded.")
		currentTotal = currentTotal or 0
		print( currentTotal )
	end
end

local defaults = {
       			guildLoot_currentTotal = 0
}
		guildLoot_currentTotal = guildLoot_currentTotal or 0

       		guildLoot_currentTotal.variable = guildLoot_currentTotal.variable + 1
