Dear Shareholder:

     This time last year both the stock and bond markets were
rock solid and on pace to return one of the best years ever. 
This year, an unexpectedly strong economy and renewed
inflationary fears have played havoc on investors' psyche and
investment returns.  Stocks, which began the year strong, have
retreated in recent weeks, and bonds have been lackluster since
January.  The Bulls and Bears appear to be headed for a market
showdown and the outcome will determine near-term market
success.  A closer look at the economic fundamentals may help to
explain the current market sentiment.

     Since 1991, our economy has been enjoying a resurgence in
growth from the recession of the late 1980's and early 1990's. 
This prosperity has brought about new technologies ranging from
increasing the quality of life for consumers to increasing the
efficiency for businesses.  At the same time the Producer Price
Index and Consumer Price Index are in-line with historical
averages and the unemployment rate is at a six year low!  So
where is the problem?

     With all this prosperity sooner or later inflation becomes
an issue.  For the past few years we have had steady growth in a
low inflationary environment that has propelled both stocks and
bonds.  It now appears that inflation may be catching up with
us.  To illustrate, look at the unemployment figure.  At 5.3
percent it appears that just about everyone who wants a job, has
one.  Eventually, however, there are too many jobs and not
enough workers, which forces companies to offer higher salaries
to potential candidates -- this creates inflation.  As workers
make more, they will spend more on goods and services.  The
surge in demand for durable and non-durable products creates an
imbalance between supply and demand that causes prices to rise
- -- this creates inflation.    

     As inflation "heats up" the Federal Reserve will begin to
raise interest rates or tighten their monetary policies in order
to slow down economic growth and inflation.  As interest rates
increase, consumer and business credit becomes more expensive
which leads to a decline in demand for goods and services.  This
decline in demand leads to lower sales and smaller profits.  As
companies make less, they will pay less and hire fewer workers. 
This scenario leads to higher unemployment, a weaker economy and
lower inflation.  Inflation will have come full-circle and
eventually it will start again.

                              2

     The effects of higher inflation can be seen in both stocks
and bonds.  It decreases the purchasing power of the fixed
income securities and reduces the present value of equity
securities.  In short, inflation causes both bonds and stocks to
decline in value. Within this environment, the Advance Capital
I, Inc. Funds have performed in-line with the general markets. 
The growth portfolios, the Equity Growth and the Balanced Fund,
increased 11.89 and 4.95 percent for the first half of the year.
 In reaction to rising interest rates, the Bond Fund, Long Term
Income Fund and Retirement Income Fund returned -1.83, -3.4 and
- -1.86 (including interest) percent respectively, for the first
six months. 

     Today, the economy is on the cusp of either surging forward
at an unpredictable pace or it is trying to squeeze every last
ounce out of a five year expansion.  We feel the later is
probably the most accurate.  Most recently, the Federal Reserve
appears to be playing wait and see.  The continuous reporting of
contradictory economic data reaffirms that we are at an
inflection point in this economic expansion.  The stock and bond
markets appear to have discounted the extremes and are waiting
for the results of the presidential election for the next cue. 
Absent any major problems, we believe stocks and bonds should
produce positive results for the year. 


                            Sincerely,


         Robert J. Cappelli               John C. Shoemaker

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

Note 1.  ORGANIZATION OF THE COMPANY

     Advance Capital I, Inc. (The COMPANY) is a Maryland
Corporation organized on March 6, 1987 and commenced operations
on August 5, 1987.  The COMPANY is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end,
diversified management investment company (a mutual fund)
offering shares in the Equity Growth Fund, Bond Fund, Balanced
Fund, Long Term Income Fund and Retirement Income Fund.

Note 2.  ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     The preparation of financial statements in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements.  Actual results could
differ from these estimates.

     The following is a summary of significant accounting
policies followed by the COMPANY.

Security Valuation

     Securities for which exchanged quotations are readily
available are valued at the last sale price, or if no sale
price, at the closing bid price.  Securities (including
restricted securities) for which exchange quotations are not
readily available (and in certain cases debt securities which
trade on an exchange), are valued primarily using dealer
supplied valuations or at their fair value as determined in good
faith under consistently applied procedures under the general
supervision of the Board of Directors.  Money market instruments
held by the Funds with a remaining maturity of sixty days or
less will be valued at cost which approximates market.

Expenses

	Most expenses of the Company can be directly attributed to a
fund.  Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are
apportioned between the Funds on the basis of average net assets.

Federal Income Taxes

     It is the Company's policy to meet the requirements of the
Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated
investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable income
to its shareholders.  Therefore, no federal income tax provision
is provided.

Other

     Fixed income security transactions are accounted for on the
trade date, the date the order to buy or sell is executed. 
Common stock transactions are accounted for on the day after the
transactions occur (trade date plus one).  Interest income is
recorded on the accrual basis.  Dividend income is recorded on
the ex-dividend date.  Premium and discount amortization on
fixed income securities are amortized using the effective
interest method.  Realized gains and

                                   44

Note 2.  ACCOUNTING POLICIES  (Continued)

losses on security transactions are determined on the first-in,
first-out method.  Net investment losses, for which no carryover
is permitted, are offset against paid in capital.  All
adjustments necessary to present a fair statement of results for
the six months ended June 30, 1996 have been included.  All
adjustments were of a normal recurring nature.

Balanced Funds, .50% of the average daily net assets of the
Retirement Income Fund, and .40% of the average daily net assets
of the Bond and Long Term Income Funds.  GROUP provides
administrative, transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent
services to the COMPANY.  The COMPANY will reimburse SERVICES
