Grammar
As ... so too (to dramatize sentences)
Namaste,
I am looking to make a sentence dramatic but wonder if the grammar is correct.
As I became rich, so too would my son someday.
My intention is to convey: Just as I became rich, my son too would become rich someday.
But can we use 'as followed by so too' in this manner to dramatize the sentence?
Shukriya/Thanks,
Gita

I would say:
My son will become rich someday just as I became rich.
I became rich. So will my son someday.
My son will become rich someday just as I became rich.
I became rich. So will my son someday.
