Math is the language of the world
Unquestionably, 'speak every language on Earth' is the right answer.
If someone is already the greatest mathematician then where do you go from there? You'd be one more than that. You'd go to eleven.
But, if you spoke every language on Earth, you'd be much more than just one more.
However, I think that being the greatest mathematician would be much more valuable than being able to translate any language to any other.
Neither, because both basiscally require you to be an autistic savant and I have enough autism already.
I learned the first 100 numbers in pi so I like to think I'm special with math. How many numbers do you know in pi. I know people which have phds in math but they couldn't do that and I didn't study math like they done and I destroy them with my reciting pi ability. I feel like the Bekele of math when I start saying all the numbers I know in pi. I probably could be a math god if I wanted to be
+ infinity times infinity. As a former D1 runner which did my math phd in a major Ivy league school, I believe you have the potential
See, this board is full of mathematical idiot savants who know nothing about language and interpersonal communication.
Speaking every language on earth would certainly give me the chance to help a lot of people from diverse backgrounds.

Please tell me this is a joke. I believe you that you have memorized 100 digits. Memorizing a string of arbitrary numbers shows you 1) have the discipline & memory to memorize 100 digits, 2) show poor discretion on how to prioritize your academic pursuits, 3) makes no indication positively or negatively on your ability to succeed in the field of math or apply it to the real world.
Math genius, of course. If everything else fails, you could make a lot of money with math. It's useless to know every language on Earth.

What a tremendous gift that would be (and, occasionally, a curse).
I’m not really sure what great benefit would come from speaking every language. It’s easy enough to translate text online or to have an interpreter, so you’d really just be saving the time/expense associated with that. Doesn’t seem like a big deal. Plus, your language abilities will become obsolete as new technology develops. I guarantee that before too long, you’ll be able to hold your phone up to someone who is speaking another language and get a real time translation.
Being a math genius would enable you to innovate and solve real problems.
I'm not sure how you would define world's greatest math genius - well, other than the exact opposite of banana nut, though you could pretty much define any type of genius that way.

After about 4 the marginal utility of learning new languages plummets.
Actually, after English it plummets.
Knowing every language...hell, knowing two languages is every pro-immigrant, bleeding-hearted liberal's wettest fantasy. In God's country we only speak American, and the only dialects are red, white and blue. I'll gladly take that math to build a star-spangled catapult to lob every polyglidiot into international waters.

This guy is obviously Banana Bread.
It depends on what your goals in life are.
If you want to make money I would think taking the math genius route would be the best.
But knowing many languages would also help in many ways.
Considering I'm both the world's greatest math genius and have the ability to speak every language on Earth (including Klingon, but excluding Esperanto - no-one speaks that shite), I can say from personal experience that I'd rather be a porn star.
there's no big value in speaking every language. most people do just fine with their native language plus english. technology will make translators obsolete soon.
math on the other hand is the key to everything, especially in this day an age.
