Would you rather speak every language or master every instrument?

Languages.  

I like music but don't feel the need to play it.

I can't believe I'm saying this but speak every language, simply because I think the stronger social aspect of language learning is harder for me and being able to skip all that harder learning and just access resources, books and social spaces in every language would be fucking AMAZING. Can you imagine the amount of research you could do? How much fact checking of the news you get by getting access to resources in other countries? The amount of foreign media masterpieces (e.g. foreign lit, cinema) that would immediately become accessible to you? The help it'd be with moving to another country and adapting lingually immediately? I would use the HELL out of that skill, EVERY DAY. The irony is I prefer instruments and learning them so picking the languages helps because I have (sadly) less motivation to dedicate myself to language learning than learning an instrument, I like the process of learning an instrument even if it sucks ass sometimes getting stuck or hitting a plateau for a while :D

I still want to pick up language learning again... There is simply not enough money for all the things I want to do lol :[
