I agree with what MoWC says: English plus [math, economics] can be a great skill set to market.

Also, the OP may want to ask him/herself exactly what it is that is attractive about English. Is it studying literature? You can study literature in any language, and maybe Chinese would be a more marketable major. Chinese/Math would be a dynamite combination, for grad school or for the job market. Or is it languages in general? The intersection between math and linguistics is totally hot these days, and rumor has it that people with computational linguistics strengths can get attractive job offers, too.
