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.

THE ABOVE GRAPH COMPARES A $10,000 INVESTMENT MADE IN EACH OF THE INVESTOR
SHARES AND RESTRICTED SHARES OF THE GROWTH PORTFOLIO ON 3/31/95 (INCEPTION DATE)
TO A $10,000 INVESTMENT MADE ON THAT DATE IN THE STANDARD & POOR'S 500 COMPOSITE
STOCK PRICE INDEX ("S&P 500 INDEX") AS WELL AS TO A CUSTOMIZED BLENDED INDEX
REFLECTING THE PORTFOLIO'S ASSET ALLOCATION BASELINE PERCENTAGES ("BASELINE")
WHICH ARE DESCRIBED BELOW AND IN THE FUND'S PROSPECTUS. THE CUSTOMIZED BLENDED
INDEX IS CALCULATED ON A YEAR-TO-YEAR BASIS. ALL DIVIDENDS AND CAPITAL GAIN
DISTRIBUTIONS ARE REINVESTED.

THE GROWTH PORTFOLIO ALLOCATES YOUR MONEY AMONG DOMESTIC AND FOREIGN STOCKS AND
BONDS. THE PORTFOLIO'S PERFORMANCE SHOWN IN THE LINE GRAPH TAKES INTO ACCOUNT
ALL APPLICABLE FEES AND EXPENSES. THE S&P 500 INDEX IS A WIDELY ACCEPTED,
UNMANAGED INDEX OF U.S. STOCK MARKET PERFORMANCE. THE S&P 500 INDEX WAS SELECTED
BECAUSE (1) DOMESTIC COMMON STOCKS REPRESENT THE HIGHEST BASELINE PERCENTAGE OF
THE PORTFOLIO'S ASSETS AND (2) THE MAJORITY OF THE STOCK PORTION OF THE
PORTFOLIO IS INVESTED IN STOCKS INCLUDED IN THE S&P 500 INDEX. THE CUSTOMIZED
BLENDED INDEX HAS BEEN PREPARED BY THE FUND FOR PURPOSES OF MORE ACCURATE
COMPARISON TO THE PORTFOLIO'S OVERALL PORTFOLIO COMPOSITION. WE HAVE COMBINED
THE PERFORMANCE OF UNMANAGED INDICES REFLECTING THE BASELINE PERCENTAGES SET
FORTH IN THE PROSPECTUS, BUT IN GREATER DETAIL THAN THE BROADER PROSPECTUS
BASELINE PERCENTAGES: DOMESTIC LARGE COMPANY STOCKS - 54.4%; DOMESTIC SMALL
COMPANY STOCKS - 13.6%; FOREIGN STOCKS - 12.0%; DOMESTIC BONDS - 17.0%; AND
FOREIGN BONDS - 3.0%. THE CUSTOMIZED BLENDED INDEX COMBINES RETURNS FROM THE S&P
500 INDEX, THE RUSSELL 2000 INDEX, THE MORGAN STANLEY CAPITAL INTERNATIONAL
EUROPE, AUSTRALASIA, FAR EAST (FREE) INDEX-HEDGED, $U.S. ("EAFE INDEX"), THE
LEHMAN BROTHERS INTERMEDIATE GOVERNMENT/CORPORATE BOND INDEX ("LEHMAN INDEX")
AND THE J.P. MORGAN NON-U.S. GOVERNMENT BOND INDEX-HEDGED ("J.P. MORGAN GLOBAL
INDEX") AND IS WEIGHTED TO THE AFOREMENTIONED BASELINE PERCENTAGES. THE RUSSELL
2000 INDEX IS AN UNMANAGED INDEX AND IS COMPOSED OF THE 2,000 SMALLEST COMPANIES
IN THE RUSSELL 3000 INDEX. THE RUSSELL 3000 INDEX IS COMPOSED OF 3,000 OF THE
LARGEST U.S. COMPANIES BY MARKET CAPITALIZATION. THE EAFE INDEX, WHICH IS THE
PROPERTY OF MORGAN STANLEY & CO. INCORPORATED, IS AN UNMANAGED INDEX COMPOSED OF
A SAMPLE OF COMPANIES REPRESENTATIVE OF THE MARKET STRUCTURE OF EUROPEAN AND
PACIFIC BASIN COUNTRIES AND INCLUDES NET DIVIDENDS REINVESTED. THE LEHMAN
BROTHERS INDEX IS A WIDELY ACCEPTED, UNMANAGED INDEX OF GOVERNMENT AND CORPORATE
BOND MARKET PERFORMANCE COMPOSED OF U.S. GOVERNMENT, TREASURY AND AGENCY
SECURITIES, FIXED-INCOME SECURITIES AND NONCONVERTIBLE INVESTMENT GRADE
CORPORATE DEBT, WITH AN AVERAGE MATURITY OF 1-10 YEARS. THE J.P. MORGAN GLOBAL
INDEX IS AN INDEX THAT MEASURES RETURNS ON BONDS FROM 12 WORLD MARKETS, HEDGED
INTO U.S. DOLLARS. THIS INDEX DOES NOT INCLUDE A U.S. BONDS COMPONENT. NONE OF
THE FOREGOING INDICES REFLECT ACCOUNT CHARGES, FEES OR OTHER EXPENSES. FURTHER
INFORMATION RELATING TO THE PORTFOLIO'S PERFORMANCE, INCLUDING EXPENSE
REIMBURSEMENTS, IF APPLICABLE, IS CONTAINED IN THE FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS SECTION
OF THE PROSPECTUS AND ELSEWHERE IN THIS REPORT.

</TABLE>


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

                                                                  The Portfolios

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.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

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 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.

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:

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:


                  Income Portfolio                $  61,317,827

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

Shareholders and Board of Directors Dreyfus LifeTime Portfolios, Inc.

We  have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the  statements  of  investments  and  financial  futures,  of  Dreyfus LifeTime
Portfolios,  Inc.,  (comprising,  respectively, the Income Portfolio, the Growth
and Income Portfolio and the Growth Portfolio) as of September 30, 1999, and the
related  statement  of  operations  for  the  year  then ended, the statement of
changes  in  net  assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and
financial  highlights  for  each of the years indicated therein. These financial
statements  and  financial  highlights  are  the  responsibility  of  the Fund's
management.  Our  responsibility  is  to  express  an opinion on these financial
statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We   conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable  assurance  about  whether  the  financial  statements  and financial
highlights  are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test  basis,  evidence  supporting  the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements  and  financial  highlights.  Our procedures included verification by
examination  of  securities  held  by the custodian as of September 30, 1999 and
confirmation  of  securities  not  held  by the custodian by correspondence with
others.  An  audit  also  includes  assessing the accounting principles used and
significant  estimates  made  by  management,  as well as evaluating the overall
financial   statement  presentation.  We  believe  that  our  audits  provide  a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In  our  opinion,  the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above  present  fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each
of the respective portfolios constituting the Dreyfus LifeTime Portfolios, Inc.,
at  September  30,  1999,  and the results of their operations for the year then
ended,  the  changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period
then  ended,  and  the  financial highlights for each of the indicated years, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
