Yearly Renewable Term (YRT)

  

Think: Term Life Insurance bought a la carte...for one year.

Sorta like an annual Netflix pass. Or a gym membership at a fancy club. You buy it. You use it. If you're still alive and have people whose welfare is important to you (even after you've kicked the bucket), then you re-up, or renew, for another year's term.
