As someone who possesses a BA in Spanish, I strongly suggest you take Spanish. Spanish is becoming the second most frequently
spoken language in the world. The Hispanic population in the U.S. is growing and moving North.
I recently traveled to Madison, Wisconsin and noticed signs on the city buses in Spanish as well as English. Also I ended up in a conversation in Spanish with a native German man whom I met through the friend I was visiting. This is not the first time I have had such an experience.
A few years ago I went to Spain with friends and met a group of Italian men. We used Spanish to communicate as it was the only language we both spoke!
I have also found my bilingual skills to be of use in the workplace. Many employers are searching for bilingual employees.
Hopefully this helps. As you study your chosen language, listen to it on TV, Radio, and DVD (German will be difficult to come by) the more you emerse yourself the easier it will be to learn.
I love being bilingual and I wish you luck in your endeavors. ¡Buena Suerte!

Start with Spanish, then if you want to add another one go with French and lastly with German. That is the most logical order as Spanish will be useful in the South of the US and in Central and South America, Spain, and it is becoming The 2nd language (and would be the easiest to learn), French in several European countries and many West and Central African countries, German in Germany and Switzerland mostly.

I would go with Spanish, as I think it may be the most spoken language (or one of them!) in the world. Also if you learn Spanish, you should be able to pick up other languages like Italian, Portugeuse and French as well pretty easy, as all these language are derived from Latin, so you could become multi-lingual!

Spanish, because it is a world language. It is spoken in Spain and and in the whole of Latin America (except in Brazil and a few small countries).
The other two, French and German, don't have the same spread and number of speakers.

Spanish. It is more spoken that French and German and by learning it you get the idea of all the other Romantic languages. Actually, if you learn it really well, you would be anle to understand Italian and Portuguese too.

I think there are more countries around the world that speak more Spanish than German, or French.

They are all great languages to learn but I think that Spanish can help you out most in future because it's one of the most spoken languages in the world.
