"Burn your fingers" nghĩa là gì?

Báo cháy là tờ báo cháy hay là báo cảnh sát có cháy? Photo by Elvis Bekmanis on Unsplash
'Burn one's fingers' = cháy những ngón tay, chỉ hậu quả hành động do mình gây ra (từ này giống kiểu 'chơi dao sắc có ngày đứt tay')

Ví dụ
The first-term MP said Ruto could burn his fingers if he doesn’t toe the President’s line (toe the line: tuân theo quy tắc một cách miễn cưỡng).
“Unless he goes back to the President and finds a way of working with him, Ruto will walk on a thinner line and his chances (cơ hội) will get harder,” Ngunjiri said.

“We will tell them don’t dare attempt it. You will burn your fingers,” the bench (quan tòa) said, adding, “it is 3-5% of lawyers who try to influence the registry whenever there is big case and bring a bad name to the lawyer community as well as judiciary (bộ máy tư pháp)”.

The problem with vague (mơ hồ, không rõ ràng) advice (lời khuyên) is that these more unknown products often carry a higher risk (mạo hiểm) profile , and without specific advise , i will probably burn my fingers , trying to execute (thực hiện) this adventurous approach.
