As described in a review in a film magazine,[4] Eleanor Lawson (Ayres) chooses to marry Fred Hopper (O'Malley), a breezy salesman, instead of Clifford Ramsay, the young and wealthy head of a big department store. The honeymoon is hardly over when bill collectors besiege Hopper and his wife learns that he is more talk than industry. They are in a bad way when Eleanor gets work and Hopper decides to ask Clifford Ramsay (Varconi) for a job. He overhears Ramsay discussing the purchase of a site, obtains an option on the property through the loan of money from an infatuated married woman, and cleans up $70,000. In the meantime, Eleanor has left him because of the other woman, but they are reconciled after Ramsay has failed to induce Eleanor to sue for a divorce.
With no prints of Worldly Goods located in any film archives,[5] it is a lost film.
