This study is the first to examine the experiences and needs of an international sample of current, English-speaking, bisexual, and transgender-identified adults (trans-bisexuals) on a number of later-life and end-of-life (EOL) perceptions, preparations, and concerns. In particular, the author analyzed a subset (n = 147) of the cross-sectional data collected from the online Trans MetLife Survey on Later-Life Preparedness and Perceptions in Transgender-Identified Individuals (N = 1,963). The author assessed perceptions and fears around aging, preparation for later life and end of life, as well as numerous demographic and psychosocial variables. Despite the fact that many respondents feel that they have aged successfully, the respondent trans-bisexual population harbors significant fears around later life challenges. Additionally the author found that this population is ill prepared for the major legalities and events that occur in the later to end-of-life time periods
