WHILE and JUST AS vs JUST LIKE / THAN
Which would you say? and are they correct grammatically?
1 Don't eat while playing/Don't play while eating
The playing is longer than the eating??
2 He hates me just as I hate him./just like I hate him.
3 It'll cost you more to fix zipper than the cost of the jacket.
4 He's richer at 24 than me when I was 40.
5 I a little more than tripled my investment. (Is this how you'd say it?)
thank you
