C++ is one of those "just because" things for me. Yes, I'm that much of a geek.

Absolutely there's lots of good stuff to learn. My (personal) laptop has M.E.A.N, Java, C++, MonoDevelop and probably other things I've forgotten.
Just so this isn't all just jibberish:
MEAN refers to a "technology stack" consisting of MongoDB, ExpressJS, AngularJS, and Node.js:

Now that people know what the acronym stands for, the components can be Googled more easily. (Searching for "what does mean mean" can give less than helpful results. ;)
Incidentally, while I did say there are practically no bad choices, and I still stand by that, I would not personally recommend C++ for anyone who is in a position to ask "what should I be learning now?".
It's an extremely powerful language, and very rewarding to master, but it's hard. And the kinds of things it is typically used for are pretty hard-core. If C++ is the language for you, you probably know it already and don't need us to give you any guidance.
