People drop dead on their 50th birthday.
Long term care and senior types of insurance dies over night.
Pay for your job will get adjusted so that you basically will have to work until you die. Company owners will not allow you to retire. They will find a way to screw you over.
People will care a little less about long term injuries. If the injury won’t really affect you until later in life it won’t be a cause for concern.
That’s certainly how Americans would respond. /s
“How does society change” implies that there are humans older than 50 when this comes into effect. There are ~3000 billionaire with the average age being 67 years old.
Way I see it… the world economy just got a 21 trillion USD stimulus package.
Doubt that is what happens, unless that billionaire is really stupid.
They already have their estate (money, properties, etc) in a trust fund. When the current beneficiary dies the trust has a secondary beneficiary listed. There is no inheritance tax, the next person in line just gets access (the benefits) to the trust. If that beneficiary dies, the next person on the list just gets the benefits of the trust.
Generally speaking who ever is the current beneficiary lists who gets it after them. Kind of like how we do a will.

Is your question based on the 2011 movie “In time”? It gets a 6.7 but back then It found it quite enjoyable. https://m.imdb.com/title/tt1637688/
The premise different but it has the same “fixed” end date

The bad news is that about 40% (assuming you work age 20-70) of the workforce disappears over night. They are also the most experienced ones. Every workplace would be crippled due to lack of man hours available.
The good news is we don’t have to pay for elderly care since just about every one can work themselves into the grave.

Although OP said “drops dead”, so suddenly there are a LOT of corpses to deal with too. Fun!
