Reminds me of a great joke:
What do you call someone who speaks three languages? Trilingual.
What do you call someone who speaks two languages? Bilingual.
What do you call someone who speaks one language? American.
I plan on taking classes to learn French in the fall, I've been to France once and loved the country, besides you never know when you'll need to communicate with someone in a different language. Having a second language or more can only be a plus, I don't think any business would hold it against you. So I would say go for it, it may not get you a bigger paycheck at the start, but it could allow you to prevail in a future situation and get a promotion/raise.
