I would ask a Professional for the best safe answer for that one.

I really can't think of anything negative. You get into the movies cheap, people give up their seat to you on the bus, you get wiser, etc. I guess you have a harder time remembering things and you get wrinkles and stuff, but really that depends more on your lifestyle than your age. If you live a healthy lifestyle you hardly have any problems as you age. Some disorders are more common when you're older though.

positive

-better perspective on life
-more independence
-senior citizen discounts
-retiring
-more time

negative

-physically going downhill metabolism slows down wrinkles etc. all the crap you did to your body starts to show
-bills and responsibility like kids
-supposed to be more sane and respectable acting
-job and figuring out what money to retire on
-lose your mind.

This is all I could come up with.

Positives:
Wisdom, experience, senior discounts, and retirement.

Negatives:
Deterioration of health-physical and mental, and experiencing the deaths of loved ones and people close to you as you age.
