Because FreedomFund 2055 charges three-quarters of a percent per year management fees:

Vanguard index 500 would cost you seven-hundreds of a percent.

You are paying Freedom Fund ten times as much to manage your money and you are unlikely to get as good a result.
And if you don't like Vanguard, that's fine, Schwab or any of a number of other index funds have FAR lower expense ratios than Freedom Fund.
