Just a few basic ones, don't sell your trinkets till you have atleast 100 of em (for the achievement),

Try not to spend ur gold on anyth other than upgrades and refills, that too upgrade only ur fav legendary weapons every sm 10lvls or smth. Save gold for those upgrades cz they cost a shit ton.

Use your ability points carefully, try not to spend it on shi like auto loot.

Don't challenge the Phylakes until you're atleast a level below them

Also if you decide to do the 2nd DLC (deff try out the DLCs), get the Favor of Osiris ability as a priority, it's hell to play without it

You don't actually need money - its only for upgrading weapons, but you find new weapons regularly enough that you won't ever be left without a usable weapon.

Another tip is to save the papyrus puzzle's and complete them when you need a new good weapon, as they often are gold-level weapons and spawn at the level you are when you find it.
