I know some of you would wonder what this topic is doing here, in the Economics section, but since it is in fact an economic question with purely utilitarian goals in mind, I think it is where it should be. This is a serious question and I'm not kidding. I'm not very interested in European languages like German or French, or whatever, as I think languages like Chinese and Japanese are more promising and rewarding in terms of both usage and money in the nearest future. Personally, I'm more inclined toward Japanese (that's why I'm not decided yet), though I understand that Chinese may be a better choice for the time being and years to come

So what is your opinion on this matter from an economic point of view, with crypto in mind?
Well, it is true, but in myself, before learning another language make first sure that you really understand your own language.

While this note may look as inconsequential or even somewhat derogatory, there is a certain grain of truth in it. Actually, when you start learning another language, you begin to understand that you don't know your own language very well. It becomes glaringly obvious when you see some translations made by the so-called "native speakers", even into their native language. You often see that they don't know very well the language they are assumed to speak fluently, i.e. their native one

But the fact is learning another language helps you become more proficient in both languages
