He has no idols. He loves football, tennis and basketball. He likes drafts. He can't stand pates and jams, they make him sick. He doesn't have roof over his head as well. Moved for over 20 times with his mother and now he lives in the rented apartment which was payed for 6 months in advance by people of good will.

JOVAN THE GENIUS (16) HAS 16 DIPLOMAS IQ 150 AND EMPTY STOMACH: "If I had food, I would not waste it away"! (PHOTO)

But, with 16 only years he has more than 30 diplomas from various competitions. Ingenuity did not replace modesty with this boy, math and numbers are the world. He counts years, calculates which day it will be, knows how many steps every building in Cacak has. All without a piece of paper and a pen. 

- I like numbers the most from math. I don't do only squares and dates, i count many stuff... I know how many steps there is in every skyscraper in Cacak - tells his story this genius from Cacak, who we "pulled" away from the city swimming pool.

Alright. When he tells us to test his knowledge, we ask him which day will be on 16th January 2025, the day Telegraf will celebrate anniversary.

- Like this. 2001 it was Thursday, 2011 as well, and in 2029 will be Tuesday, and in 2025 it will be Thursday - said readily Jovan Stevic.

But how does he do it?

- Calendars are exactly the same every 28 years. 22nd May 2000 was Monday, so 1972 was Monday. On every four years back i go 2 days behind. So in 1976 was Saturday, 1989 Thursday. And then i go for each year one day forward. So 22nd May 1981 will be Friday, 1982 Saturday, 1983 Sunday - Reveals Jovan.

Our host completed Economic school in Cacak, banking section. Even though many think of him as a mathematical genius, it is entirely possible for banking, instead of statistics, to be the guideline in his life.

He participated in more than 20 competitions where he "gathered" more than 30 diplomas.

Competitions did not bore me. They are the encouragement to move on. I did not prepare for them much in the primary school. I would win first, second or third place. There were thank you notes. There were failures. Actually, the only result i am not happy about is the district competition in the eight grade. I only had 5 points and i had maximum in the municipal competition. Geometry is not my strong point, i "lost" it there - honest Jovan stevic.

In comparison to the most students who need more hours of studying, he only needs to keep attention in class.

- I study around 15 to 20 minutes. The time it takes me to read the lesson. Basically, its important for me to keep attention in class.

He would love to participate in some game show, but he waits to turn 16 so he can apply for Slagalica (game show on national TV). He is not one of those talents that are eager to leave the country. Moreover, he doesn't care if he stays or goes, he just wants to find his luck.

- And that is to have a family, a wife, children and money for average life - Jovan is being modest.

He is thankful for everything he accomplished in life to his mother Snezana, who raised him by herself. He doesn't know the father. Even thou he starved, he is not complaining about anything in life, and he wishes not to talk about that in front of cameras. 

The only thing he would like to own are bicycle and a football ball. 

Everyone who wish to help Jovan Stevic, can do so by sending a package to the address: Snezana Mijailovic, Ljubicki Kej 2, apartment no 18 or by donating to the Snezana Mijailovic account. Komercijalna banka: 205-9011006484667-69.
