*Never invest into Bitcoin more than you can afford to lose
That's good advice. I prefer, "Never hold more value in Bitcoin than you could lose without feeling devastated."
Some people might be able to financially "afford" to lose a few thousand dollars, but emotionally they may become overwhelmed and devastated from a loss of a few hundred.

If you're going to feel "overwhelmed and devastated" if you lose it, then you've got too much value in bitcoin. It isn't worth the risk to your health and wellbeing.
*Don't borrow to buy btc
Like the previous one, this really depends. How low is the interest rate? How low are the payments? If the bitcoin were to disappear, how would you feel about the need to continue to pay off the debt? How would that debt burden effect you financially AND emotionally?
*Vary from btc into alt coins
Nonsense and bull$h1t.
You are already taking on significant risk and volatility with Bitcoin. There's no good reason to support altcoin trash.
*Buy and trade btc in a trusted and legit platform
Trust no one. Who decides what is "legit"? How do you know it's "legit". Even if it seems "legit" today, there is no guarantee that it will still be "legit" tomorrow (or even later today). Be careful regardless of where you but or sell your bitcoins. When buying, get them out of the exchange and into your own wallet so quickly as possible. When selling, don't transfer to the exchange until you're ready to sell. Is the exchange well known? Are there any recent reports of issues? Are they regulated and/or audited? Are they insured? How is good their user security? Don't hold any more value at any one moment on any exchange than you could lose without significant concern.
binance..
Eh. I'm not thrilled with them.
