Supplement dated August 3, 2007 * Prospectus dated February 1, 2007

SPECIAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

At a Special Meeting of Shareholders held July 27, 2007, shareholders of Target
2010 and Target 2015 approved a change to the Advisor Class fee structure. The
change will result in a decrease of 25 basis points (0.25%) in the Rule 12b-1
fee and a simultaneous increase of 25 basis points in the unified management
fee, resulting in no change to the total expense ratio of the class. The fee
changes will be effective on September 4, 2007.

One of the special meetings of shareholders of Target 2020 and Target 2025
originally scheduled for June 27, 2007, has been adjourned to August 24, 2007.
Shareholders as of the close of business on April 13, 2007, are being asked to
approve a change in the Advisor Class fee structure.

For more information about the proposal under consideration, please contact
American Century's proxy solicitor at 1-877-256-6083 to request a free copy of
the applicable proxy statement.

THE FOLLOWING REPLACES THE SECOND PARAGRAPH UNDER THE SERVICE, DISTRIBUTION AND
ADMINISTRATIVE FEES SECTION ON PAGE 27.

Certain financial intermediaries perform recordkeeping and administrative
services for their clients that would otherwise be performed by American
Century's transfer agent. In some circumstances, the advisor will pay such
service providers a fee for performing those services. Also, the advisor and the
funds' distributor may make payments to intermediaries for various additional
services, other expenses and/or the intermediaries' distribution of the funds
out of their profits or other available sources. Such payments may be made for
one or more of the following: (1) distribution, which may include expenses
incurred by intermediaries for their sales activities with respect to the funds,
such as preparing, printing and distributing sales literature and advertising
materials and compensating registered representatives or other employees of such
financial intermediaries for their sales activities, as well as the opportunity
for the funds to be made available by such intermediaries; (2) shareholder
services, such as providing individual and custom investment advisory services
to clients of the financial intermediaries; and (3) marketing and promotional
services, including business planning assistance, educating personnel about the
funds, and sponsorship of sales meetings, which may include covering costs of
providing speakers, meals and other entertainment. The distributor may sponsor
seminars and conferences designed to educate intermediaries about the funds and
may cover the expenses associated with attendance at such meetings, including
travel costs. These payments and activities are intended to provide an incentive
to intermediaries to sell the funds by educating them about the funds and
helping defray the costs associated with offering the funds. The amount of any
payments described by this paragraph is determined by the advisor or the
distributor, and all such amounts are paid out of the available assets of the
advisor and distributor, and not by you or the funds. As a result, the total
expense ratio of the funds will not be affected by any such payments.
