Depending on your location.

For all non English speakers, English should be the first secondary language that is learnt.

The choice can be simplified as follows:

  • If you are in trade / import & export then [Mandarin] Chinese is the logical choice
  • If you are a scientist then German is a good choice (many papers are published in German)
  • If you are doing business with SE Asia & Africa then French is a great second language.
  • If you are primarily involved with the Middle East then either Arabic or urdu are excellent choices.

Spanish is only really usefull if you live in America. Spanish is not widely spoken outside of Spain (with the exception of the Americas) and can be considered fairly useless in Asia where no nations use Spanish as a primary language.
