if your class Wallet with above correction is in myClassFile.py
you should be able to do:
 >>> import MyClassFile
 >>> dir(MyClassFile)
 ['Wallet', '__builtins__', '__doc__', '__file__', '__name__']
 >>> aWallet = MyClassFile.Wallet(10)
 >>> dir(aWallet)
 ['balance']
 >>> dir(MyClassFile.Wallet)
 ['WalletCnt', '__doc__', '__init__', '__module__', 'display', 'getPaid', 'spend']
 >>> aWallet.display()
 New Balance: $10.00
 >>> aWallet.spend(3)
 New Balance: $9.00
 >>> aWallet.display()
 New Balance: $9.00
 >>> aWallet.spend(3.0)
 New Balance: $8.00
 >>> aWallet.WalletCnt
 1

I'll leave it to you to debug why you can only spend single dollars.
Something tells me you didn't do much homework before posting ;-)
