If you're not willing to invest it, and you don't already have something in mind you want to buy, then I say just save it.

Aside from that it depends on your hobbies. If it were me as a teenager it might be nice to get a decent fishing rod or multitool - something that you will use for a long time into adulthood.

Saving up to travel is also something you probably won't regret, and will create lifetime memories that define you.

This might not be the most fun advice, but it's the right advice.

The earlier you start saving the more money you'll have when you truly need it.
