I'm tempted to say that the next language to learn after your main 
programming language (one or two of Java, C, C++) should be SQL. 

Why? Because, if a project involves an RDBMS, a programmer or designer 
who understands SQL and can normalise data, create a schema and can sort 
out DBMS performance issues is a hell of a lot more valuable than one who 
can't. I've lost track of the jobs where I ended up fixing the DB as part 
of my technical design/programming role. 

Don't forget, too, that its not too uncommon to find that the DBMS 
supplier's proprietary consultants will know less than you do about 
finding and fixing performance bottlenecks.
