Thanks for the corrections and suggestions.
As for the above, I wanted to find out if it is ok to use another way of saying it. As in "Если ты ..........." instead of saying "Работать, так работать".

"Как?" doesn't work there. You could say "Можно сказать так?"
In some cases "how about.." is translated "как насчет?..", but not in this case.
