If you're fluent in Spanish, then you can get by with Portuguese and read Italian. Nobody can understand what the fuck Italians are saying unless they repeat it at 0.25x speed.

I'm at like b2 or c1 in spanish and I can almost never understand spoken portuguese. Written portuguese (or french or italian) I can read mostly ok but spoken portuguese sounds like someone speaking spanish with mashed potatoes in their mouth.

I guess I had an easier time with Brazilian Portuguese because I spent a decade in coastal Puerto Rico and they high speed mumble with tons of slang and a serious dislike of consonants (See Tego Calderón).
