Term Life Insurance
Considered the most basic form of life insurance, term basically involves you paying a premium to receive a death benefit that goes to your beneficiaries upon your passing. This is usually paid off in a lump sum, although you can choose monthly payments or annuities.

Universal Life Insurance
Just like Whole Life Insurance, some of your premium fund the cash value and the death benefit. However, with this policy, you can change the the death benefit and premium amount whenever you please! What's even better is that you don't have to sign a new policy to do so.

Whole Life Insurance
Similar to term, Whole Life Insurance has a death benefit as well. However, it also has a cash value. The premiums you pay will partially be used to fund the cash value. However, majority of it goes to fees and maintaining that death benefit. This can cost 6 to 10 times the premium of a term life insurance policy.
