Dear Shareholder:

     The performance of the US economy is moving into what could 
well be called miraculous territory.  As the expansion continues 
into a record number of unbroken years,  both inflation and 
unemployment remain at postwar record lows.  Even in the face of 
a recession affecting one of our largest trading partners, the 
domestic success story continues.  

     In the financial markets the story is much the same.  Viewed 
broadly, the continued theme of strong corporate profits, low 
inflation and record inflows into stock mutual funds have fueled 
above average stock returns again during the first half of 1998.  
Through midyear the S&P 500 Index increased more than 17 percent, 
although the second quarter was "only" a more normal three percent.  
The Nasdaq Composite has done slightly better than 20 percent 
through midyear and the bond market has prospered with returns 
generally above that provided by yield alone.  For the first half 
of the year the stocks of larger capitalized companies and the 
biggest high tech companies led the market's advance.  Smaller 
and mid-sized companies' stock performance was much lower during 
the first half of the year.  

     Through June 30th, the Advance Capital I, Inc. Equity Growth 
Fund increased 11.3 percent, better than the average of the mid-cap 
funds followed by Lipper Analytical Services, Inc.  The Balanced 
Fund returned 8.8 percent for the half-year, ranking it well above 
the middle of balanced funds followed by Lipper.  The Bond Fund 
and Retirement Income Fund, returning 3.6 percent and 4.2 percent, 
respectively, for the first half of the year, each continued long 
term performance better than their respective intermediate term 
bond and BBB rated bond brethren.  Over the three years ending in 
June the Advance Capital I, Inc. funds have continued to perform 
consistent with or better than funds with comparable investment 
objectives.

     "Prosperity abounds, but will it last?" is the big question 
nagging investors.  On the domestic front, dangerously low 
unemployment may be tipping the balance of power from employer 
to employee.  Eight years ago corporate downsizing and a stagnant 
economy kept wages and benefits in check.  Those with a job were 
grateful and those without were hard pressed to find a viable 
career opportunity.  Today, jobs are plentiful and qualified 
workers are hard to find.  This shift has forced employers to 
offer higher wages and incentive packages to retain qualified 
personnel, especially in computer programming and finance.  Even 
at the factory level General Motors is now something of a national 
litmus test for this balance of power.  The key issue, of course, 
is not pay but the relationship between pay and productivity.  If 
productivity does not keep ahead of wage increases, inflation is 
simply the mathematical result.  If inflation leaps to higher 
levels, financial assets will suffer the consequences.  We all 
learned this lesson well over 20 years ago. 

     On foreign soil, the economic and political problems in Asia 
will certainly slow our domestic growth.  Should they become 
significantly more severe than today, investment returns will 
certainly suffer.  In less than a year, the economies of Thailand, 
Indonesia, Korea and Malaysia toppled from emerging successes to 
near insolvency and civil unrest.  It is not often that economic 
conditions cause violent protests and the forced resignation of 
a multi-decade national leader.  This experience in Indonesia is 
the most dramatic evidence of the magnitude of the economic 
problems facing the Far East.  The world is looking to Japan and 
China to help save the ailing region.  

                             2

Japan's economy, however, has stagnated for the past decade amid 
loose controls and poor national fiscal policy.  The resolution 
of Japan's problems are still in the "to be determined" category 
and are being debated there today.  If Japan's economic slide 
continues, it's ability to help revitalize the region is doubtful 
at best.  The Chinese Government is resisting the pressure to 
devalue its own currency in an attempt to ease the financial 
burden on its trading partners, the smaller Asian countries, at 
the expense of its domestic investors.
  
     It appears that an economic tidal wave is building in the 
East.  Although these foreign troubles are mounting, exports to 
the smaller Asian countries account for only a tiny fraction of 
the US economy.  Further, the impending IMF stimulus package 
(with its mandated controls) should help stabilize these economies.  
The real Achilles heel is Japan.  If Japan falls into a deep or 
more protracted recession, the news for the rest of the world 
will not be good.  Major problems in the second largest economy 
in the world are not in the same category as a devaluation of 
the Thai baht.  Concerted ongoing efforts by the United States 
and the IMF are targeted to provide the support and encourage 
(and demand) the reforms necessary to turn the tide.  The world 
economy depends heavily on Japan and all eyes and efforts are 
focused there.  

     Over the next eighteen months the strength of the US economy 
will be tested by both domestic wage pressure and foreign economic 
turmoil.  There is little doubt that growth will slow, the question 
is by how much.  That answer depends on the delicate balance 
between the enormous strength of the US economy and the opposing 
pressures, both domestic and foreign.  If foreign problems escalate 
and the US economy begins to look like it may suffer, stocks will 
surely decline.  A continuation of the status quo should see 
continued health in both the stock and bond markets. 

     We believe the best investment approach, particularly during 
periods of such uncertainty, is to remain focused on the original 
investment objectives of the portfolios.  Past studies have proven, 
many times, that attempts to "time" the market simply do not work.  
The successes of the Advance Capital I, Inc. funds to date have 
come from sticking to the objectives, remaining fully invested 
and staying focused on a careful selection of securities and 
equally careful management of costs.  Our specific view of the 
markets is that the success will continue.  Certainly the risks 
are clear and the entire financial world is watching them 
carefully. 


                   Sincerely,

                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 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 exchange 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 are 
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 generally 
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 intends to distribute all of its taxable income to 
its shareholders.  Therefore, no federal income tax provision is 
provided.

                             40

NOTE 2.  ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Dividends

     Income dividends in the Bond, Balanced and Retirement Income 
Funds are declared daily, except on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays 
and are paid monthly on the last business day of the month.  Income 
dividends in the Equity Growth Fund, if any, are declared annually 
and paid on the last business day of the year.  Capital gain 
dividends, if any, are declared annually on the last business day 
of the year and are normally paid within 45 days.

Other

     Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date, the 
date the order to buy or sell is executed.  Interest income is 
recorded on the accrual basis.  Dividend income is recorded on the 
ex-dividend date.  Premium and discount on fixed income securities 
are amortized using the effective interest method.  Realized gains 
and losses on security transactions are determined on the first-in, 
first-out method for book and tax purposes.  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, 1998 have been included.  
All adjustments were of a normal recurring nature.

subsidiary of Advance Capital Group, Inc.) is the COMPANY'S
