Maybe a fun thought experiment?

Suddenly, the following occur:
* All living humans biologically revert back to age 25, and will remain that way permanently; meaning, humans no longer age beyond the biological age of 25. Anyone younger than this will age normally until they reach 25, at which point their aging stops.
* Despite no longer dying of old age or any complications associated with it, humans can still die from other means, such as trauma, suffocation, or diseases.
* Humans are no longer able to conceive children, no matter what, even through artificial means. Anyone who is currently pregnant when this change occurs will still be able to carry out their pregnancies until birth, but afterwards they will not be able to conceive anymore children.
* In relation to the above, no human will be able to conceive children for as long as the global human population is over 5 billion. If/when the number of living humans drops below that amount, conception will become possible again, until the population again rises to over 5 billion, when conception ceases once more. This potentially gives humanity a somewhat-cyclic very short window where they are able to attempt to have children should they choose to go for it.
How do you believe this will affect society and/or yourself?

This is basically what happend in Lightning Returns except the de aging part

Hell no rich old people need to pass on and redistribute their wealth.

A world where no one ages or dies of old age sounds awful because then you would just have rich people getting richer and poor people getting poorer.
