Prerequisite: none
My incentive for learning languages is not for conversation (me conversing with a stranger? What a joke!) but for the linguistics. For the sake of language itself. The way it is and its relation to other languages. As of now I know Chinese and English very well, and minimal Japanese, Dutch, Italian, Irish, Turkish, and maybe some Thai.
And also for curiosity. What is masculine or feminine noun? A gender or neuter noun? What are cases? When to use which cases? What is an agglutinative language? An eclipsis? A lenition? Go find out!
Duolingo
Great site to proceed at your own pace. What I like most about it is the convenience of definitions and audio. The interface design is very simple and there are many languages available. And why not, it is completely free. Completely free of additional purchases.
Readlang
The web browser feature similar to Google Translate but waaaaay better. You can read a page in foreign language and click on words you do not know for its definition. No need to flip the dictionary a billion times.
Invest in a language now~
