How does Direct term life insurance work?

Direct term is a kind of term life insurance policy, which covers you for a specific length of time (usually 10 to 30 years). If you die while the policy is active, your family receives a cash payout based on your coverage amount that they can use to cover any short- or long-term financial needs.
