LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to present this annual report for Dreyfus LifeTime Portfolios,
Inc., covering the 12-month period from October 1, 1998 through September 30,
1999. Inside, you'll find valuable information about how the fund was managed
during the reporting period, including a discussion with the fund's portfolio
manager, Steven A. Falci.
The past 12 months have been highly volatile for stocks and bonds, which began
the reporting period in the wake of a sharp correction caused primarily by the
spread of the global financial crisis in overseas markets. The Federal Reserve
Board responded to the crisis last fall by reducing short-term interest rates.
Its strategy apparently was effective, and the U.S. economy remained strong
through the remainder of the reporting period.
Because inflation is more likely to rise in a strong economy, the bond market
generally declined during the first nine months of 1999. To help forestall a
rise of inflation, the Federal Reserve Board raised short-term interest rates
twice during the summer of 1999, effectively reversing most of last fall's
interest-rate cuts.
Despite weakness in the U.S. stock market toward the end of the reporting
period, these economic conditions generally supported stock prices throughout
the year. Technology stocks and other stocks with high growth rates provided the
highest overall returns, while value-oriented stocks generally lagged the market
averages.
We appreciate your confidence over the past year, and we look forward to your
continued participation in Dreyfus LifeTime Portfolios, Inc.
Sincerely,
Stephen E. Canter
President and Chief Investment Officer
The Dreyfus Corporation

DISCUSSION OF PERFORMANCE
Steven A. Falci, Portfolio Manager
How did Dreyfus LifeTime Portfolios, Inc. perform relative to its benchmarks?
For the 12-month period ended September 30, 1999, Dreyfus LifeTime Portfolios,
Inc. produced the following total returns:(1)
GROWTH PORTFOLIO CUSTOMIZED BLENDED INDEX(2)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Investor Shares 23.50% 21.58%
Restricted Shares 23.93%
GROWTH AND INCOME PORTFOLIO
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Investor Shares 14.17% 13.65%
Restricted Shares 14.51%
INCOME PORTFOLIO
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Investor Shares 5.44% 7.13%
Restricted Shares 5.66%
The total returns for the Growth Portfolio and the Growth and Income Portfolio
compare with a 27.79% total return for the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock
Price Index. The total return for the Income Portfolio compares with a 0.63%
total return for the Lehman Brothers Intermediate Government/Corporate Bond
Index.(3)
We attribute the outperformance of the Growth and Growth and Income Portfolios
to timely asset shifts between their stock and bond components, which enabled us
to capture higher returns as different market segments came into favor. In
addition, the stock components in these two portfolios helped drive returns, led
primarily by an effective security selection strategy. And while the Income
Portfolio's 12-month returns did not exceed those provided by its blended
benchmark, we are pleased that the portfolio handily outperformed the Lehman
Brothers Intermediate Government/Corporate Bond Index.
The Portfolios
DISCUSSION OF PERFORMANCE (CONTINUED)
What are the portfolios' investment approaches?
Dreyfus LifeTime Portfolios, Inc., consists of three separate portfolios
offering a range of investment approaches: Income Portfolio, the most
conservative; Growth and Income Portfolio, a more moderate fund; and Growth
Portfolio, the most aggressive of the three. While the portfolios are managed
using the same basic investment philosophy, each varies according to its own
investment goals and risk tolerance levels.
All three portfolios typically invest in stocks and bonds. However, each
allocates its assets between those two investment classes in a different way.
While the actual makeup of the Growth and Growth and Income Portfolios will vary
over time according to our view of prevailing market conditions, typical
portfolio allocations are as follows: Income Portfolio -- 67.5% bonds, 22.5%
stocks and 10% cash; Growth and Income Portfolio -- 50% bonds and 50% stocks;
Growth Portfolio -- 20% bonds and 80% stocks.
When selecting securities for each portfolio, we generally attempt to mirror the
sector weightings of the benchmark indices. However, we seek to produce returns
that exceed the benchmarks by using a highly disciplined security selection
process that considers variables such as price/earnings ratios, interest-rate
levels and the shape of the yield curve. In addition, we use proprietary
computer models that assess the relative values of stock and bond prices across
different markets.
What other factors influenced the performance of the portfolios?
At the beginning of the portfolios' 12-month reporting period, the global equity
markets were in the midst of turmoil, a crisis that resulted in a broad-based
stock market decline last summer in the United States. To take advantage of
lower stock prices, we allocated a larger percentage of the portfolios' assets
to equities. At the end of the year and into early 1999, we began to pare the
portfolios' equity allocation back to a more neutral position. In fact, by early
February 1999, we had positioned the portfolios even more defensively, moving
our
equity components to underweighted positions because of concerns regarding
conditions in the global equity markets. While this stance did not allow us to
fully participate in the brief U.S. stock market rally that occurred in
mid-April, it proved to be a positive move when stocks began to underperform
bonds during the third quarter of 1999. However, it is important to note that
for the 12-month period the equity component outperformed the S&P 500, driven
largely by gains in our holdings in America Online, Oracle, Lexmark
International Group, Cl. A, EMC and Sun Microsystems.
The most notable events within the fixed-income markets during the reporting
period were the interest-rate hikes initiated by the Federal Reserve Board in
June and August, 1999. In a rising interest-rate environment, the strongest
fixed-income gains were produced by the corporate bond sector, followed by
mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, U.S. government agency
bonds and U.S. Treasuries.
What is the current strategy for the portfolios?
The primary driver of performance in these portfolios is our asset allocation
strategy. That is, our success is dependent upon our ability to make correct
asset shifts between the stock and bond components. As of the end of the
reporting period, our Growth and Growth and Income Portfolios remain positioned
near their minimum equity/maximum fixed-income exposure. We made that decision
due to the rising interest-rate environment, fears of inflation and our belief
that many stocks remain excessively priced.
In the equity component, we begin by using an investment approach that is sector
neutral to the S&P 500. Then, we attempt to add value to the portfolios by
actively selecting stocks within those sectors that we believe can produce
positive returns. As of the end of the period, some of the names that we are
emphasizing are Microsoft, International Business Machines, Exxon, Wal-Mart
Stores, General Electric and Citigroup.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1--General:
Dreyfus LifeTime Portfolios, Inc. (the "fund") is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as an open-end
management investment company and operates as a series company currently
offering three diversified Portfolios: the Income Portfolio, the primary
investment objective of which is to maximize current income and the secondary
investment objective of which is capital appreciation, the Growth and Income
Portfolio, the investment objective of which is to maximize total return,
consisting of capital appreciation and current income and the Growth Portfolio,
the investment objective of which is capital appreciation. The fund accounts
separately for the assets, liabilities and operations of each portfolio. The
Dreyfus Corporation ("Dreyfus") serves as each Portfolio's investment adviser.
Dreyfus is a direct subsidiary of Mellon Bank, N.A. ("Mellon"), which is a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Mellon Financial Corporation. Mellon Equity
Associates ("Mellon Equity"), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Mellon
Financial Corporation, serves as each Portfolio's sub-investment adviser.
On September 23, 1999, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization,
previously approved by the fund's Board of Directors, all or substantially all
of the Dreyfus Asset Allocation Fund's assets and liabilities were transferred
to the Growth & Income Portfolio in a tax free exchange for Investor Class
shares of the Growth & Income Portfolio at net asset value. 4,291,269 shares
valued at $12.71 per share, representing net assets of $54,557,437 [including
$147,484 net unrealized appreciation on investments] were exchanged by Dreyfus
Asset Allocation Fund for 2,970,357 Investor Class shares of the Growth & Income
Portfolio.
Premier Mutual Fund Services, Inc. (the "Distributor") is the distributor of the
fund's shares. The fund is authorized to issue 50 million shares of $.001 par
value Common Stock in each of the following classes of shares: Restricted and
Investor. Investor Class shares are offered to any
investor and Restricted Class shares are offered only to clients of certain
banks, securities brokers or dealers and other financial institutions
(collectively, Service Agents) that have entered into selling agreements with
the Distributor. Other differences between the classes include the services
offered to and the expenses borne by each class.
The fund's financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles which may require the use of management estimates
and assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
NOTE 2--Significant Accounting Policies:
(a) PORTFOLIO VALUATION: Investments in securities (including options and
financial futures) are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange
on which such securities are primarily traded or at the last sales price on the
national securities market. Securities not listed on an exchange or the national
securities market, or securities for which there were no transactions, are
valued at the average of the most recent bid and asked prices. Bid price is used
when no asked price is available. Securities for which there are no such
valuations are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under the
direction of the Board of Directors. Investments denominated in foreign
currencies are translated to U.S. dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange.
Forward currency exchange contracts are valued at the forward rate.
Most debt securities are valued each business day by an independent pricing
service ("Service") approved by the Board of Directors. Debt securities for
which quoted bid prices are readily available and are representative of the bid
side of the market in the judgment of the Service are valued at the mean between
the quoted bid prices (as obtained by the Service from dealers in such
securities) and asked prices (as calculated by the Service based upon its
evaluation of the market for such securities). Other debt securities are carried
at fair value as determined by the Service, based on methods which include
consideration of: yields or prices of securities of comparable quality, coupon,
maturity

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
and type; indications as to values from dealers; and general market conditions.
(b) FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS: Each Portfolio does not isolate that portion
of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on
investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of
securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and
unrealized gain or loss from investments.
Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales and maturities of
short-term securities, sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses
realized on securities transactions and the difference between the amount of
dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Portfolio's
books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid.
Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value
of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities, resulting from
changes in exchange rates. Such gains and losses are included with net realized
and unrealized gain or loss on investments.
(c) SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME: Securities transactions are
recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gain and loss from securities
transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is
recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income, including, where
applicable, amortization of discount on investments, is recognized on the
accrual basis. Under the terms of the custody agreement, each Portfolio receives
net earnings credits based on available cash balances left on deposit. During
the period ended September 30, 1999, the Income Portfolio and the Growth and
Income Portfolio received net earnings credits of $2,710 and $11,802,
respectively. Income earned under this arrangement is included in interest
income.
(d) EXPENSES: Expenses directly attributable to each Portfolio are charged to
that Portfolio's operations; expenses which are applicable to all Portfolios are
allocated among them on a pro rata basis.
(e) DIVIDENDS TO SHAREHOLDERS: Dividends are recorded by each Portfolio on the
ex-dividend date. Dividends from investment income-net and dividends from net
realized capital gain, with respect to each Portfolio, are normally declared and
paid annually, but each Portfolio may make distributions on a more frequent
basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). To the extent that a net realized capital gain
of a Portfolio can be offset by a capital loss carryover of that Portfolio, such
gain will not be distributed.
(f) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES: It is the policy of each Portfolio to continue to
qualify as a regulated investment company, if such qualification is in the best
interests of its shareholders, by complying with the applicable provisions of
the Code, and to make distributions of taxable income sufficient to relieve it
from substantially all Federal income and excise taxes. For Federal income tax
purposes, each Portfolio is treated as a single entity for the purpose of
determining such qualification.
The Growth and Income Portfolio has an unused capital loss carryover of
approximately $164,000 available for Federal income tax purposes to be applied
against future net securities profits, if any, realized subsequent to September
30, 1999. The amount of this loss which can be utilized in subsequent years is
subject to an annual limitation due to the fund's merger with Dreyfus Asset
Allocation Fund. If not applied, the carryover expires in fiscal 2007.
NOTE 3--Bank Line of Credit:
Each Portfolio participates with other Dreyfus-managed funds in a $600 million
redemption credit facility (the "Facility") to be utilized for temporary or
emergency purposes, including the financing of redemptions. In connection
therewith, each Portfolio has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro rata
portion of the Facility. Interest is charged to a Portfolio at rates based on
prevailing market rates in effect at the time of borrowings. During the period
ended September 30, 1999, no Portfolios borrowed under the Facility.

NOTE 4--Investment Advisory Fee, Sub-Investment Advisory Fee and Other
Transactions with Affiliates:
(a) Pursuant to a Investment Advisory agreement with Dreyfus, the Investment
Advisory fee is computed on the value of each Portfolio's average daily net
assets and is payable monthly at the following annual rates: .60 of 1% of the
Income Portfolio and .75 of 1% of the Growth and Income Portfolio and the Growth
Portfolio.
Dreyfus has undertaken from September 24, 1999 through December 31, 1999, that,
if the aggregate expenses of the Growth & Income Portfolio, exclusive of taxes,
brokerage commissions, extraordinary expenses, interest expenses and commitment
fees on borrowings, cause the expenses of its Investor Class to exceed 1.13% of
the value of the average daily net assets of the Investor Class, the Growth &
Income Portfolio may deduct from the payment to be made to Dreyfus under the
Investment Advisory Agreement, or Dreyfus will bear, such excess expense. The
reduction in investment advisory fee, pursuant to the undertaking, amounted to
$20,137 during the period ended September 30, 1999.
Pursuant to a Sub-Investment Advisory Agreement between Dreyfus and Mellon
Equity, Dreyfus has agreed to pay Mellon Equity a monthly sub-advisory fee for
each Portfolio, computed at the following annual rates:
ANNUAL FEE AS A PERCENTAGE OF
TOTAL PORTFOLIO NET ASSETS AVERAGE DAILY NET ASSETS OF EACH PORTFOLIO
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
0 to $600 million .35 of 1%
$600 million up to $1.2 billion .25 of 1%
$1.2 billion up to $1.8 billion .20 of 1%
In excess of $1.8 billion .15 of 1%
(b) Under the Shareholder Services Plan, each Portfolio pays the Distributor, at
an annual rate of .25 of 1% of the value of the average daily net assets of each
Portfolio's Investor Class shares for the provision of certain services. The
services provided may include personal services relating to shareholder
accounts, such as answering shareholder inquiries regarding the fund and
providing reports and other information, and services related to the maintenance
of shareholder
accounts. The Distributor may make payments to Service Agents in respect of
these services. The Distributor determines the amounts to be paid to Service
Agents.
During the period ended September 30, 1999, each Portfolio's Investor Class was
charged the following pursuant to the Shareholder Services Plan:
Income Portfolio $ 30,707
Growth and Income Portfolio 21,692
Growth Portfolio 14,704
Each Portfolio compensates Dreyfus Transfer, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Dreyfus, under a transfer agency agreement for providing personnel and
facilities to perform transfer agency services for each Portfolio. During the
period ended September 30, 1999, each Portfolio was charged the following
pursuant to the transfer agency agreement:
Income Portfolio $ 5,100
Growth and Income Portfolio 12,983
Growth Portfolio 9,233
Each Portfolio compensates Mellon under a custody agreement for providing
custodial services for each Portfolio. During the period ended September 30,
1999, each Portfolio was charged the following pursuant to the custody
agreement:
Income Portfolio $ 8,582
Growth and Income Portfolio 39,737
Growth Portfolio 26,171
(c) Each director who is not an "affiliated person" as defined in the Act
receives from the fund an annual fee of $1,000 and an attendance fee of $250 per
meeting. The Chairman of the Board receives an additional 25% of such
compensation.
NOTE 5--Securities Transactions:
(a) The following summarizes the aggregate amount of purchases and sales of
investment securities, excluding short-term securities, financial

Growth Portfolio 65,512,629 53,916,877
</TABLE>
Each Portfolio enters into forward currency exchange contracts in order to hedge
its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates on its foreign
portfolio holdings. When executing forward currency exchange contracts, a
Portfolio is obligated to buy or sell a foreign currency at a specified rate on
a certain date in the future. With respect to sales of forward currency exchange
contracts, a Portfolio would incur a loss if the value of the contract increases
between the date the forward contract is opened and the date the forward
contract is closed. A Portfolio realizes a gain if the value of the contract
decreases between those dates. With respect to purchases of forward currency
exchange contracts, a Portfolio would incur a loss if the value of the contract
decreases between the date the forward contract is opened and the date the
forward contract is closed. A Portfolio realizes a gain if the value of the
contract increases between those dates. Each Portfolio is also exposed to credit
risk associated with counter party nonperformance on these forward currency
exchange contracts which is typically limited to the unrealized gain on each
open contract. At September 30, 1999, there were no open forward currency
exchange contracts.
Each Portfolio may invest in financial futures contracts in order to gain
exposure to or protect against changes in the market. A Portfolio is exposed to
market risk as a result of changes in the value of the under
lying financial instruments. Investments in financial futures require a
Portfolio to "mark to market" on a daily basis, which reflects the change in the
market value of the contract at the close of each day's trading. Typically,
variation margin payments are received or made to reflect daily unrealized gains
or losses. When the contracts are closed, a Portfolio recognizes a realized gain
or loss. These investments require initial margin deposits with a custodian or
broker, which consist of cash or cash equivalents, up to approximately 10% of
the contract amount. The amount of these deposits is determined by the exchange
or Board of Trade on which the contract is traded and is subject to change.
Contracts open at September 30, 1999, are set forth in the Statements of
Financial Futures.
(B) The following summarizes accumulated net unrealized appreciation
(depreciation) on investments and financial futures for each Portfolio at
September 30, 1999:

Growth Portfolio 9,662,596 (2,351,018) 7,311,578
At September 30, 1999, the cost of investments of each Portfolio for Federal
income tax purposes was substantially the same as the cost for financial
reporting purposes. The cost of investments for each Portfolio for financial
reporting purposes as of September 30, 1999 was as follows:
