Benefit and Advantage are used the same way, but Benefit is more kind and fair for both people. It's usually used when exchanging fair trades between people, or when you do nice things without expecting anything back. Advantage is more selfish, you do things to become better than other people, you do something because you expect to get something back, like power or knowledge. Profit is also selfish, but is usually only used when you are doing or selling something to get money.
