Kevin Rose and Tim Ferriss have made a co-investment in Facebook on the secondary market. In this video clip posted this week, Rose announces that he and Ferris recently invested in Facebook "before the craziness." We've embedded the video below; Rose talks about the investment just after the 34 minute mark. We confirmed with Rose that he and Ferriss actually bought shares on secondary market SecondMarket at a $45 billion valuation. We're told the deal was in the seven figures. The 'craziness' Rose is referring to is Facebook's recent $1.5 billion funding round from Goldman Sachs and DST at a $50 billion valuation, and the possibility of an IPO for the network by April 2012.
