The word "goods" is used to mean items for sale. A dry good store, for example.

If I were an shop owner, I might refer to my own goods, but only to refer to what is for sale in my store. It does not apply to "a situation that is beneficial to me" as "for my own good" does.

No. The words "goods" is used ONLY for items for sale.

For his own good. For their own good. For the good of all mankind. For the common good. It's always good.
