root.geometry("1000x500")


def show():
    totall = tot.cget("text")

tot = Label(root, text="sss",font="arial 22 bold").place(x=650, y=10)
Button(root, text="Add",command = show,height=3, width= 13).place(x=650, y=50)


root.mainloop()

The problem is you call place inline you define tot as Label that method returns None, so you can not get the text from a NoneType.

Split place method on another line and it will work.

tot = Label(root, text="sss",font="arial 22 bold")
tot.place(x=650, y=10)
