I love c++ it's a very reliable language that has been around for every and you can do many, many things with it .

Favorite language depends on how you look at it in my opinion.
C# is my favorite language currently, because I can program pretty good in it and already released some tools in it. This summer, I'll be learning other languages (hopefully C) so this might change in the future.
I like C# because it's easy to use, and you can create semi-advanced programs in a relatively short time. It doesn't work as fast as C or Python in data processing, but it's still nice to use.

I learned Java first, and loved it. But then touched C++ and saw the power, never went back.

I enjoy C, but I like C++ much better for one and only one reason. Data structures. C was conceptualized at a time period when serious abstraction was not a thing. As time went on, people created their own libraries to keep things strait (generally through serious abuse of struct). C++ got made in the wake of this, and took care of a lot of the problems C had by creating a few new concepts (hence the joke, C++). There are many datastructures I used pretty consistently in C++ that would be an utter bitch to make in C (for example, a hash table).
I do not do any business deals.
If anyone contacts you to do business with my name, it is not me.

It's by no means useful for what I know and a complete pain in the ass to work with compared to some more modern languages, but 6502 ASM is what I'd consider my favorite.
It's not that great of a reason why but it's definitely a reason - 6502 ASM brings me some money. I'm really into the retro gaming/vintage computing scene, and if you know system hardware between the 1970s and 1990s you may know the Atari 2600, 5200, 7800, and 8-bit computer lineup all run on a 6502 or simplified 6507, everything Commodore up to the C128 used a 6502 or 6502-based CPU, the NES and Famicom run on the Rioch 2A03/2A07 which use the MOS 6502 instruction set with added features, and the PC Engine/Turbografx 16 use the HuC6280 which is a customized 65C02 which shares the instruction set with the MOS 6502. So, I program a few homebrews now and then - I've sold a nice chunk of cartridges, HuCards, CDs, and tapes for various systems using games that I've made anyways. It's kind-of neat to see, really - it's by no means a large market, but it's definitely a lot of fun to design a game for an old system like that and have it sell a few hundred copies or even more depending on how popular it is.
Past that, there's really no use that I can think of for a 6502 that something like my Arduinos couldn't cover and do a million times more with so I don't use 'em much outside of the retro gaming/vintage computing scene. I do know a few other languages, but I never got too into programming outside of some Arduino stuff and little bits of my single-board computers so I don't have a great idea on what I like or dislike although I am trying to figure that out - C is enjoyable enough and Java sucks, that's what I've got so far anyways.
