Sentence Correctness

Hi

I don't think I am afraid of the uncertainties as much as normal people are.
I don't think I am as afraid of uncertainties as normal people are.

Please tell me if both are grammatical.

And, do they have the same meaning.

(I think they are all right. And, in terms of the meaning also, there is no difference. While in the first one "as much as" comparison denoting degree is used, in the second, it as adjective as pattern denoting the similarity or sameness)

Please share your views.
