English and Mandarin are going to be the two most important languages in the coming years, and learning Mandarin is an enriching experience. Of all the languages that I've studied, I've found Mandarin the most fascinating. It's hard work at the beginning because there are so many unfamiliar concepts, even using only Pinyin: 5 tones... strange grammar... weird tenses... But stick at it and it gives a great insight into the way the Chinese mind works. And if you venture into Hanzi, you'll gain a lot more understanding.
