Answer:

Jocko is status inconsistent because his level of education, which is not consistent with his rank in property and power.

Step-by-step explanation:

Status inconsistency occurs when the social position has both negative and positive impact on his social status.

It occurs when an individual is socially respected in one way and not another. For example a teacher may earn small amount of money but he is respected in society as a learned person.

Status in insistence occurs as a result of profession, income, education and social circles.

In this scenario Jocko has a high school diploma and owns a corporation that nets over a million dollars a year.

His income makes him someone that is highly respected in society, however educationally he will not have as much respect because he only has a diploma.
