Language Powers

I was just chatting with a friend of mine about language and how learning language is considered the hardest thing a human will ever do. The feat of being completely fluent in more than one is exponentially difficult. Babies are the hardest workers ever, wrapping their brain around all the syntax, phonemes and whatnot of language.
So, I'd say the most important and useful language in the world hands down is: English. Even though it is actually a pretty challenging language to learn, English is the language of business and that's what makes the world go round ya know. But this is where me and my friend disagreed-is Spanish the second most important language? Or would it be possibly, French? Chinese?
