A Lisp-like language will only help you if you stay in the lisp world. A C-like will help you with most of the world's current languages in the Tiobe list.

That's so not true in my opinion. There is a whole generation that was raised with Scheme as first language (and SICP ), I am particularly grateful that I was part of that and today I program (or had programmed) in most of the top languages in the Tiobe list as you say.
