The unusual life story, woven out of brilliance and a few contradictions, brought about a medical doctor who successfully sailed through the intertwined financial streams in Serbia towards the end of the XIX and at the beginning of the XX century. He governed and "healed" the Serbian finance, because his brilliant mind realized that the pillars of financial emancipation and successful state finance policy are the following: transparency in leading the policy of financing the public spending, strengthening the domestic sources for the budget expenditures financing, and the strict financial discipline in respect of the state revenues collection.
