This release introduces a new library, `assets`.

To update lifelib, run the following command:

> pip install lifelib --upgrade

If you're using Anaconda, use the ``conda`` command instead:

> conda update lifelib


The assets library is for modeling portfolios of financial instruments.
Currently, the library includes one model, BasicBonds.

BasicBonds models a portfolio of fixed rate bonds, generates cashflows and calculates the market value of the portfolio.
BasicBonds uses QuantLib, a third-party open-source library for financial instrument valuation.

v0.4.0 is discarded due to packaging error.

An example notebook, [3. Memory-Optimized Mutiprocess Example](https://lifelib.io/libraries/notebooks/savings/savings_example3.html) is added to the [savings](https://lifelib.io/libraries/savings/index.html#module-savings) library. This example demonstrates how to effectively run a heavy model with a large data set. The demonstration utilizes techniques such as:

* Multiprocessing using ipyparallel
* Memory-optimized runs introduced in modelx v0.19.0

This release adds a new example, 2. Extended Stochastic Example in the savings library, and reflects some cosmetic changes in the savings models. Find out more at https://lifelib.io/releases/relnotes_v0.3.2.html

To update lifelib, run the following command:
