I don't go to sleep with no whore and I don't wake up with no whore
That's how I live with myself. I don't know how you do it.
I'm happiest...in the saddle.

Gary Anne? don't you mean Darien?
shareHe meant both Darien and Gekko. Thats why that scene was so powerful. Its the emotional outburst from Martin Sheen we were expecting.
shareI believe he's referring to Gekko exclusively; it's, like, a metaphor.
Bud is clearly on his way to the dark side, and Gekko is the one dangling the carrot. It's not literal -- Darien has nothing to do with it.
Great scene though. Marty really hits that "WALLET!" doesn't he?

He was saying that Gekko screws people for money just like "whores"do.

I've always believed he was referring exclusively to Darien. It doesn't make sense to me to call Gekko a whore. Carl Fox was a simple guy and likely would have called Gekko any number of other things but not a "whore" which is usually reserved for women. Carl is also probably religious, and married to one woman his whole life (Bud's mother) and thus he's disgusted by Bud's relationship to Darian which seems immoral to him.
