term life insurance
Fixed-period protection
Term life insurance is life insurance that covers you for a specific period—typically 10, 20, or 30 years.
If you die during the term, beneficiaries receive the death benefit; if you outlive it, coverage ends with no payout.
Term policies are cheaper than whole life insurance because they build no cash value: We bought term life insurance when our kids were born.
