My wife and I were asked, back in 1997 to cosign a loan for a nephew. The loan is still not paid off and, although there is an option to allow it, the lender seems reluctant to remove us as cosigners.

I have an emergency fund of 11K.
I owe two portion of student loans
8K and 5.5K both at 6.8%.
I'm thinking about paying off either the 5.5K one or the 8K one. Should I keep my emergency fund the way it is or pay off one of the loans?
