Be prepared when you ask this question. Many, if not most, responses will lean toward the modern for rather obvious reasons. It is today. It is now. It is cool. My response is different.
The value of learnning about the past, even the remote past, is that you soon realize that not much new is as new as you might have thought. Much (even most) of what is today also was in the past. Solutions to problems from the past by other societies and cultures were recorded in other languages and therein lies the advantage to looking into the past; you may avoid some mistakes and find solutions that worked in similar situations.
If you only look at the present, though, there are definite advantages to knowing Greek and Latin. The opportunities to increase your vocabulary makes the effort worthwhile. Advantages to entering into fields of study related to science, law and language studies can be acquired through the study of Latin and Greek also. And it is always an advantage to be able to read the literature yourself instead of relying on what other people say. Your interpretation becomes as good as theirs. You can investigate for yourself.
The greatest advantage to me (and why I appreciate the Latin and Greek languages so much) is that I realize that the western traditions can be much more fully appreciated through a study of the Greek and Latin cultures. I only wish I had the opportunity to learn of the eastern traditions through language studies also. The cultures and societies of the present and past are appreciated so much more when The language of its people is understood Thus the love of languages that so many people have.
If you pursue this interest, please do not disregard so many other languages that have transmitted so much of value to the world as we know it today. Each language reflects something of value from peoples of the past. Each embodies values dear to entire groups of people.
Happy "languaging"!

i don’t know. but i don’t think it is all that important unless you want to be a historian.

Spanish/French/Japanese are better.

Not really unless you plan on studying other languages like french, spanish, english etc which have lots of greek and latin words in them… Greek would only be handy if you’re in Greece and if it’s ancient greek you learn, that won’t be useful in any part of the world… Latin is also used in medicine and naming flowers and animals

They’re both useful in etymology and if you want to study the origins of Western civilization.
