Term life insurance or term assurance is life insurance that provides coverage at a fixed rate of payments for a limited period of time, the relevant term.
When you shop for life insurance, you've got two basic options: term or permanent life insurance. Term life insurance covers you for a specific period of time, usually 10, 15, 20 or 30 years. If you live past your policy's term, there is no payout to your beneficiaries. Permanent life insurance, such as whole life, universal life or variable universal life insurance, covers you for the duration of your lifetime. It also offers a feature that's commonly viewed as a strong selling point: cash value.
