A 10-year-old South African boy, Sibahle Zwane is presently making headlines for being smarter than even a calculator.
It has been discovered that the Grade 4 pupil, Zwane is so smart that he can answer complex arithmetic questions faster than a calculator in seconds.
Zwane shot into prominence when he was filmed answering complex math questions from a local policeman in South Africa.
Interestingly, Zwane now makes money from his gift by charging R2 for every correct answer he provides.
His mom, Mbali Zwane, in a BBC interview revealed he makes up to R200 a day.
Ms Zwane, a 28-year-old, single and unemployed mother of two, says his gift was first picked up when he was in grade two. She said his teachers told her he had a unique ability with numbers.
She has applied for scholarships to take him to an institution where his talent can be developed.
Sibahle, who aspires to be a pilot when he grows up, said he can’t really explain how he manages to make complex calculations in his head.
“I just see the numbers in my head. I like numbers more than anything else. In the meantime, he’s making good money from strangers who are blown away by his talent, proving that he has a good business sense as well,” he told TimesLive.
