My father is a Spaniard and my mother is French. I speak both Spanish and French fluently at a very high proficiency. What is the top paying career for someone like me? I like traveling and I love negotiating deals and stuff.

What else do you know? Business is still about stuff, making things or selling other people things or just buying things. Lanuages is good, but the three you know are fairly common so you need to add other knowledge to the equation. Look at jobs that connect France, US, Mexico, Spain or South America.

Americans typically do not know many languages, but I have rarely seen language be a big part of the job equation. The main exception are asian languages right now. We have a real shortage of American Citzens with good Asian skills. Most companies need supply chain, buyers, lawyers and others with Asian language skills.

Translators working directly for the EU get paid a lot. You could also go into international law or international business, with the right education. If you've got business connections, you can make a good deal of money teaching EFL overseas to Spanish and French executives- I knew a guy doing this who charged EUR 75 per hour.

Traveling? Negotiating deals? Sounds like you're trying to get someone to tell you to become a diplomat. I think you should definitely look into it. Being tri-lingual is not something too many Americans especially can say, and being a diplomat would allow you to travel, get paid well, and negotiate deals. Try working in foreign policy as a diplomat, sounds like you were made for the job.

Intelligence agencies.
FBI, CIA or my favorite DIA.

People with special skills are always in high demand but working in such a sector as intelligence would be more rewarding that working for a big corporation.

You have a chance to do something and to be something great. Parents have given you a gift, your country has given you freedom now you can give back to both of them by making your country a safer place to raise the next generation of exceptional people.

Being an interpreter for the court system. I don't know how busy you'd be but if you get the word out through many sources including word of mouth, you could get a good business going. Good luck!! What about even working for the Embassy??

A traslator for a court system would be a good choice. Provide that you were never in trouble with the law before.
