                               PRESIDENT'S LETTER

                               LIFEUSA FUNDS, INC.


WHAT'S RIGHT WITH THIS MARKET

The stock market has been on a roller coaster of late, and that naturally makes
people uneasy. But if you're a long-term investor, then I would argue that there
are a lot more good things influencing the market than bad things.

True, U.S. corporate earnings are flattening out, and that's putting a damper on
the stock market. When you buy a stock, you're buying a future stream of
dividends as well as a stronger company because most of the profits are being
reinvested. After double-digit growth during much of the 1990s, profits in 1998
are growing in the low single digits. A major reason why profits are sluggish is
the economic and currency turmoil in Asia, which hurts U.S. companies doing
business there.

Another reason for sluggish profit growth is the great job that Corporate
America has done to become more efficient. After years of cost-cutting, there
isn't much cutting left to do. To enhance profits, companies must either boost
prices or sell more products and services. But with inflation at virtually zero,
it's tough to raise prices. So, profit growth must come through increased unit
volume.

And that's where the good news is likely to begin. Even with the dampening
effects of Asia, the U.S. economy is still basically healthy, making it possible
for U.S. corporations to sell more products and services here at home. True,
we're losing business in Asia, because the dollar is so strong compared to their
currencies. But what we're losing in Asia, we're gaining in Europe, as that
region of the world begins to enjoy U.S.-style prosperity. Europe will look even
stronger once the euro, the Continent's single currency, begins to replace 11
currencies on January 1, 1999.

Asia has helped keep inflation worries away, and that has kept interest rates
low. Recently, the 30-year Treasury bond yield reached its lowest level ever, as
global investors buy our securities for the greatest safety and liquidity.
Partly because of our low inflation environment, worldwide demand for U.S.
stocks and bonds continues to be strong.

Even if 1998 turns out to be a mediocre year for stocks, let's not feel too
sorry for ourselves. The Dow Jones Industrial Average has more than doubled
since 1995 and virtually tripled since the beginning of this decade. Where was
the Dow in 1982? 800! Has your house gone up by a factor of ten in fifteen
years? Probably not. The point is that markets do not go up in a straight line,
and there is bound to be volatility. But if you're an investor for the long
term, then you should be able to step back and see the good in this market.

We hope that you read the Portfolio Managers' Reviews which follow this letter.
They offer a detailed perspective on the individual funds' performance and
strategy. As always, we appreciate your continued trust and confidence in IAI.

SINCERELY,

                                PORTFOLIO REVIEW

                       LIFEUSA AGGRESSIVE GROWTH PORTFOLIO

LIFEUSA AGGRESSIVE GROWTH PORTFOLIO

HOW HAS THE PORTFOLIO PERFORMED?

The LifeUSA Aggressive Growth Portfolio has had a net asset value total return
of 11.57% for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The Russell 2500 Index has
returned 5.66% over the same time period. The Portfolio consists mainly of small
cap stocks. While small caps rallied in the first quarter of 1998, the "Asian
Flu" returned to the stock market during the second quarter. This gave investors
another reason to retreat to bonds and large-cap stocks, leading to a decline in
the fortunes of small company stocks.

WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE PORTFOLIO?

We have approached 1998 cautiously, believing that the "Asian Flu" could be the
catalyst for weaker corporate profits in many sectors. However, we believe the
Portfolio consists of well-positioned companies with sustainable competitive
advantages in stable, growing markets. Thus, we are optimistic about the outlook
for strong relative performance regardless of the environment.

                            LIFEUSA GROWTH PORTFOLIO

LIFEUSA GROWTH PORTFOLIO

HOW HAS THE PORTFOLIO PERFORMED?

The LifeUSA Growth Portfolio has had a net asset value total return of 11.67%
for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The S&P 500 Index has returned 17.71%
over the same time period. Robust economic growth, low inflation and corporate
profit expansion led the stock market to strong absolute returns in the first
quarter of 1998. However, Asian economic events led investors to seek the safety
and liquidity offered by the large blue chip stocks. Smaller and midcap stocks
have not fared as well in this environment.

WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE PORTFOLIO?

The economic environment remains very favorable. Modest economic growth, low
inflation, and low interest rates continue to support stocks. Slower earnings
growth due to Asian turmoil may materialize later this year. If this does occur,
we believe investors will be attracted to the high quality, consistent growth
companies that comprise the majority of the Portfolio.

LIFEUSA GLOBAL PORTFOLIO

HOW HAS THE PORTFOLIO PERFORMED?

The LifeUSA Global Portfolio has had a net asset value total return of 6.93% for
the six months ended June 30, 1998. The S&P 500 Index has returned 17.71%, and
the EAFE Index has returned 16.08% over the same time period. International
equity markets were mixed in the second quarter of 1998. Continuing weakness of
the yen and concerns over the Japanese banking system provided a catalyst for
further declines in the Asian markets. In contrast, European equity markets
continued their rally as investors sought shelter in a region seen as relatively
safe. Emerging markets were negatively impacted by the Asian crisis. 

WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE PORTFOLIO?

Following the recent setback, Asian markets have reached attractive levels of
valuation. Continental European economies are recovering, influenced by capital
investment and increased consumer spending.

LIFEUSA BALANCED PORTFOLIO

HOW HAS THE PORTFOLIO PERFORMED?

The LifeUSA Balanced Portfolio has had a net asset value total return of 7.91%
for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The S&P 500 Index has returned 17.71%,
the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index has returned 3.93%, and the EAFE Index
has returned 16.08% over the same time period. Asian economic events led
investors to seek the safety and liquidity offered by the large blue chip stocks
during the first half of the year. Smaller and midcap stocks have not fared as
well in this environment. The interest sensitivity of the Portfolio was extended
during the second quarter to reflect our favorable outlook on interest rates in
the near term. Asian markets declined, while European equity markets continued
their rally as investors sought shelter in a region seen as relatively safe.

WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE PORTFOLIO?

We continue to focus on companies with solid competitive advantages and
extremely high financial quality at attractive fundamental valuations. Companies
with these characteristics possess the strength and flexibility to weather
downturns in the economy and capital markets that should lead to strong relative
performance in weak markets and out-performance over a full market cycle.

                        LIFEUSA CURRENT INCOME PORTFOLIO

LIFEUSA CURRENT INCOME PORTFOLIO

HOW HAS THE PORTFOLIO PERFORMED?

The LifeUSA Current Income Portfolio has had a net asset value total return of
3.76% for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond
Index has returned 3.93% over the same time period. The focus of the Portfolio
was on sector and issue selection during the first half of the year. The
overweighting in both Mortgages and Corporates was extended late in the period
as spreads for these sectors vs. Treasuries had widened, providing better value.
The interest sensitivity of the Fund was extended during the second quarter
reflecting our favorable outlook for interest rates in the near-term.

WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE PORTFOLIO?

Looking ahead, the near-term trends look favorable for bonds. US economic growth
should moderate this summer in response to slower production, reduced inventory
accumulation and rising imports. Soft commodity prices and Asian instability
will keep inflation expectations in check. Federal Reserve policy will remain on
hold. We have positioned the Fund to benefit from these factors.However, we see
risks for the market beyond the summer months. Inflation isn't dead. Falling
commodity prices are currently masking a rising trend of service-based inflation
in such areas as housing rental and medical care. The Fed may need to take
action later in the year. As evidence of these events materialize, the Fund will
be repositioned in a more defensive mode.

                    LIFEUSA PRINCIPAL PRESERVATION PORTFOLIO

LIFEUSA PRINCIPAL PRESERVATION PORTFOLIO

HOW HAS THE PORTFOLIO PERFORMED?

The LifeUSA Principal Preservation Portfolio has had a total return of 2.21% for
the six months ended June 30, 1998. The Lipper Money Market Fund Average has
returned 2.44% over the same time period. Short-term interest rates increased
very slightly during the quarter. One month commercial paper is now earning
annualized returns of about 5.54%.

WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE PORTFOLIO?

Near-term trends look favorable for long bonds. Soft commodity prices and Asian
instability will keep inflation expectations in check. Federal Reserve policy
will remain on hold. However, we see risks for the market beyond the summer
months. Inflation isn't dead. Falling commodity prices are currently masking a
rising trend of service-based inflation in such areas as housing rental and
medical care. The Fed may need to take action later in the year. The Fund should
continue to earn returns similar to those shown above until the Fed is forced to
raise rates.

                                  JUNE 30,1998
                                  (UNAUDITED)


(1)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


LifeUSA Funds, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated on April 26, 1996, and is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (as amended) as an open-end
management investment company consisting of the following six separate
diversified investment portfolios: LifeUSA Aggressive Growth Portfolio
(Aggressive Growth Portfolio), LifeUSA Growth Portfolio (Growth Portfolio),
LifeUSA Global Portfolio (Global Portfolio), LifeUSA Balanced Portfolio
(Balanced Portfolio), LifeUSA Current Income Portfolio (Current Income
Portfolio) and LifeUSA Principal Preservation Portfolio (Principal Preservation
Portfolio) (collectively, the Portfolios). The sponsor and distributor of the
Portfolios is LifeUSA Securities, Inc. (the Sponsor or Distributor). Each of the
Portfolios was created as a separate portfolio represented by a separate class
of common stock of the Company and offer a means of investing in shares of
certain IAI Mutual Funds (the Underlying Funds) within certain predetermined
percentage ranges. The Company's articles of incorporation permit the Board of
Directors to create additional portfolios in the future and each Portfolio is
permitted to issue separate classes of stock. This report covers only the
Aggressive Growth Portfolio, Growth Portfolio, Global Portfolio, Balanced
Portfolio, Current Income Portfolio and Principal Preservation Portfolio,
currently the only Portfolios of the Company. Financial statements for the
Underlying Funds may be obtained by calling the toll-free Investor Services
Hotline at 1-800-945-3863.

Significant accounting policies followed by the Portfolios are summarized below:

PORTFOLIO VALUATION

The investments of the Portfolios consist of mutual funds that are valued daily
at their respective net asset values in accordance with the Investment Company
Act of 1940.

FEDERAL TAXES

Since it is each Portfolio's policy to comply with the provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute all of its taxable income to its shareholders, no provision for
income taxes is required. In order to avoid the payment of any federal excise
taxes, the Portfolios are required to distribute substantially all of their net
investment income and net realized gains on a calendar year basis.

Net investment income and net realized gains may differ for financial statement
and tax purposes primarily because of the deferral of "wash sale" losses for tax
purposes. The character of distributions made during the year for net investment
income or net realized gains may also differ from its ultimate characterization
for tax purposes.

SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME

Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and
losses from security transactions are reported on an identified-cost basis for
both financial statement and federal income tax purposes. Distributions to
shareholders from the Underlying Funds are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Interest income and expenses are recorded on an accrual basis.

DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS

Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Distributions from net investment income are made semi-annually (monthly for the
LifeUSA Principal Preservation Portfolio). Capital gains, if any, are primarily
distributed at the end of the calendar year. Additional capital gains
distributions, as needed to comply with federal tax regulations, are distributed
during the year.

                               LIFEUSA FUNDS, INC.

                                  JUNE 30,1998
                                  (UNAUDITED)


(1)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.)

ORGANIZATION COSTS

Organization costs are being amortized over sixty months on a straight-line
basis. In the event the Sponsor redeems any or all of its shares representing
initial capital in the Portfolios prior to the date such costs are fully
amortized, it will bear such portion of the unamortized organization costs as
the number of shares redeemed bears to the initial purchase of shares.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements.
Actual amounts could differ from those estimates.

(2)  FEES AND EXPENSES

The Company has entered into an investment advisory and administrative services
agreement with Investment Advisers, Inc. (Advisers) who is also the adviser to
the Underlying Funds. Pursuant to the agreement, Advisers provides the
Portfolios with investment advisory services and is responsible for the overall
management of the Portfolios' business affairs subject to the authority of the
Board of Directors. Because the Underlying Funds pay Advisers a management fee,
no compensation is paid to Advisers under the agreement. The agreement also
provides that each Portfolio shall pay the fees and expenses of outside legal
counsel, independent public accountants, and custodians as well as certain
expenses incurred in connection with the registration of Portfolio shares for
sale to the public, interest and, in certain circumstances, taxes and
extraordinary expenses. Until May 1, 1999, the Sponsor has voluntarily agreed to
reimburse the Portfolios for all other expenses.

The Portfolios have adopted a plan of distribution under Rule 12b-1 of the
Investment Company Act of 1940. Under such Plan, the Portfolios have entered
into an underwriting and distribution agreement with the Distributor. Under the
agreement, the Portfolios pay the Distributor a fee for the servicing of
shareholder accounts and the distribution of Portfolio shares. The fee is
computed monthly based on average daily net assets for each Portfolio at an
annual rate of 0.75% (0.50% payable as distribution fee and 0.25% as a
shareholder servicing fee). Until May 1, 1999, the Sponsor has voluntarily
agreed to waive that portion of the fee in excess of 0.50% of each Portfolio's
average daily net assets.

(3)  PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES

For the period ended June 30, 1998, purchases and sales proceeds of the
Underlying Funds were as follows:
