Money & Business

Money Matters by Katy Marquardt and Kirk Shinkle

February 29, 2008 12:55 PM ET | Katy Marquardt | Permanent Link

Warren Buffett's annual letter to shareholders, which is to be released late this afternoon, will probably provide more insight into Buffett's bond insurance plan but will most likely leave us guessing about his successor at Berkshire Hathaway. Be sure to find a comfy chair: Last year's letter was 22 pages long and contained some 13,000 words. Got a question for Buffett? Submit it to CNBC for Buffett to answer on Squawk Box Monday morning.
