So Im thinking about becoming a translator. I already have english, french and spanish (my first language) and I think I'll do fine with them.

Any other language that could be useful? I love japanese but I suspect it's not as useful as it used to be some years ago.

Russian, mandarin, arabic?

Intelligence agencies look for Arabic, Russian, Somali, Persian and Chinese speakers all the time.

But 90% of the people that get hired are native speakers.

I'd suggest you don't try to do everything; having a small set of languages but being able to use them for their full potential would be better IMHO.

With that in mind, >>892 has some sound advice on which languages. Also, Portuguese would be a really easy option for you (+1 language for the price of 1/4!).

(Por exemplo: aposto que consegues entender esta frase sem saber português, apenas pelos teus conhecimentos de espanhol/castelhano e francês.)
