How much more money would I make if I learned a foreign language or 2?

How much more money would I make if I learned a foreign language or 2?
I can Speak, Write, and Read in both English and Spanish perfectly well. However, I have been very interested in learning a foreign language. I am currently studying Japanese, I have just completed my Japanese 101 class not too long ago in college, and I look forward to be able to go to Japan and speak to people there. I hope in 6 years that I can be fluent just like a normal everyday Japanese person....I have also been interested in learning Mandarin Chinese and Korean, but maybe I shouldn't get into it that much....I do however hope to also learn how to read and write Traditional Chinese..... my question is...how much more money will someone make if he/she speaks 2 or more languages? what about 3? 4? It's okay even an estimate is fine.... what is an estimate? also...I don't care so much about the money. I am not in it so much about the money, but I think it would be really really cool to be able to communicate with a lot of people. I could probably be able to communicate with most of the people in this world....easily more than half at least.

i dont think its how much more money that you would make, but it deffinatley helps to be multi linguil because businesses hire people that can speak more than one language, especially hospitals and other places that foreign people come. so basically you could get a little bit more money but you would have increased your chances of getting a certain job that you want
