PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS
The fund is subject to the following principal investment risks:
(small solid bullet) STOCK MARKET VOLATILITY. Stock markets are
volatile and can decline significantly in response to adverse issuer,
political, regulatory, market or economic developments. Different
parts of the market can react differently to these developments.
(small solid bullet) INTEREST RATE CHANGES. Interest rate increases
can cause the price of a debt or money market security to decrease.
(small solid bullet) FOREIGN EXPOSURE. Foreign markets, particularly
emerging markets, can be more volatile than the U.S. market due to
increased risks of adverse issuer, political, regulatory, market or
economic developments and can perform differently than the U.S.
market.
(small solid bullet) FINANCIAL SERVICES EXPOSURE. Changes in
government regulation or economic downturns can have a significant
negative affect on issuers in the financial sector.
(small solid bullet) PREPAYMENT. The ability of an issuer of a debt
security to repay principal prior to a security's maturity can cause
greater price volatility if interest rates change.
(small solid bullet) ISSUER-SPECIFIC CHANGES. The value of an
individual security or particular type of security can be more
volatile than the market as a whole and can perform differently than
the value of the market as a whole. A decline in the credit quality of
an issuer or the provider of credit support or a maturity-shortening
structure for a security can cause the price of a money market
security to decrease. The value of securities of smaller issuers can
be more volatile than that of larger issuers. Lower-quality debt
securities (those of less than investment-grade quality) can be more
volatile due to increased sensitivity to adverse issuer, political,
regulatory, market or economic developments.
(small solid bullet) QUANTITATIVE INVESTING. Securities selected using
quantitative analysis can perform differently than the market as a
whole as a result of the factors used in the analysis, the weight
placed on each factor, and changes in the factors' historical trends.
(small solid bullet) "GROWTH" INVESTING. "Growth" stocks can perform
differently than the market as a whole and other types of stocks and
can be more volatile than other types of stocks.
(small solid bullet) "VALUE" INVESTING. "Value" stocks can perform
differently than the market as a whole and other types of stocks and
can continue to be undervalued by the market for long periods of time.
An investment in the fund is not a deposit of a bank and is not
insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or
any other government agency.
When you sell your shares of the fund, they could be worth more or
less than what you paid for them.
Additional information about the fund's investments is available in
the fund's annual and semi-annual reports to shareholders. In the

The following indexes are used to calculate Freedom Income's Composite
Index: Wilshire 5000 Index for the domestic equity fund class, Lehman
Brothers Aggregate Bond Index for the investment grade fixed-income
fund class, and Lehman Brothers 3-Month Treasury Bill Index for the
money market fund class. The index weightings of the Composite Index
are rebalanced monthly.
Wilshire 5000 is a market capitalization-weighted index of
approximately 7,000 U.S. equity securities.
The Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index is a market value-weighted
index of investment-grade fixed-rate debt issues, including
government, corporate, asset-backed, and mortgage-backed securities,
with maturities of one year or more.
The Lehman Brothers 3-Month Treasury Bill Index represents the average

a bond equivalent yield basis (short-term and money market
instruments).

volatile than the market as a whole and can perform differently than
the value of the market as a whole. The value of securities of smaller
issuers can be more volatile than that of larger issuers.
Lower-quality debt securities (those of less than investment-grade
quality) can be more volatile due to increased sensitivity to adverse
issuer, political, regulatory, market or economic developments.
(small solid bullet) QUANTITATIVE INVESTING. Securities selected using
quantitative analysis can perform differently than the market as a
whole as a result of the factors used in the analysis, the weight
placed on each factor, and changes in the factors' historical trends.
(small solid bullet) "GROWTH" INVESTING. "Growth" stocks can perform
differently than the market as a whole and other types of stocks and
can be more volatile than other types of stocks.
(small solid bullet) "VALUE" INVESTING. "Value" stocks can perform
differently than the market as a whole and other types of stocks and
can continue to be undervalued by the market for long periods of time.
An investment in the fund is not a deposit of a bank and is not
insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or
any other government agency.
When you sell your shares of the fund, they could be worth more or
less than what you paid for them.

the fund's annual and semi-annual reports to shareholders. In the

Standard & Poor's 500 Index (S&P 500(registered trademark)) is a
market capitalization-weighted index of common stocks.
Fidelity Freedom 2030 Composite Index is a hypothetical representation
of the performance of Freedom 2030's asset classes according to its
respective weightings adjusted on June 30 and December 31 of each
calendar year for Freedom 2030, to reflect the increasingly
conservative asset allocations.
The following indexes are used to calculate Freedom 2030's Composite
Index: Wilshire 5000 Index for the domestic equity fund class, Morgan
Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia, Far East (EAFE)
Index for the international equity fund class, Lehman Brothers
Aggregate Bond Index for the investment grade fixed-income fund class,
Merrill Lynch High Yield Master Index for the high yield fixed-income
fund class, and Lehman Brothers 3-Month Treasury Bill Index for the
money market fund class. The index weightings of the Composite Index
are rebalanced monthly.
Wilshire 5000 is a market capitalization-weighted index of
approximately 7,000 U.S. equity securities.
Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia, Far East
(EAFE) Index is a market capitalization-weighted index that is
designed to represent the performance of developed stock markets
outside the United States and Canada. As of December 31, 1998, the
index included over ____ equity securities of companies domiciled in
___ countries.
The Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index is a market value-weighted
index of investment-grade fixed-rate debt issues, including
government, corporate, asset-backed, and mortgage-backed securities,
with maturities of one year or more.
Merrill Lynch High Yield Master Index is a market value-weighted index
of all domestic and yankee high-yield bonds. Issues included in the
index have maturities of one year or more and have a credit rating
lower than BBB-/Baa3, but are not in default.
The Lehman Brothers 3-Month Treasury Bill Index represents the average
of Treasury Bill rates for each of the prior three months, adjusted to
a bond equivalent yield basis (short-term and money market
instruments).
Fee Table
The following table describes the fees and expenses that are incurred
when you buy, hold or sell shares of Freedom 2030. [The annual fund
operating expenses provided below for the fund do not reflect the
effect of any [expense reimbursements] [[or] reduction of certain
expenses] during the period.][The annual fund operating expenses
provided below for the fund are based on historical expenses.]

A Effective November 1, 1996, Strategic Advisers has voluntarily
agreed to reimburse the fund to the extent that total operating
expenses (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and
extraordinary expenses) exceed __% of its average net assets. This
arrangement can be terminated by Strategic Advisers at any time.
[Strategic Advisers has entered into arrangements on behalf of the
fund with the fund's custodian and transfer agent whereby credits
realized as a result of uninvested cash balances are used to reduce
fund expenses. Including these reductions, the total fund operating
expenses [, after reimbursement,] would have been __%.]
This EXAMPLE helps you compare the cost of investing in the fund with
the cost of investing in other mutual funds.
Let's say, hypothetically, that the fund's annual return is 5% and
that your shareholder fees and the fund's annual operating expenses
are exactly as described in the fee table. This example illustrates
the effect of fees and expenses, but is not meant to suggest actual or
expected fees and expenses or returns, all of which may vary. For
every $10,000 you invested, here's how much you would pay in total
expenses if you close your account after the number of years
indicated:
