Yes, I guess, if one happens to be Warren Buffett, Bill Gates, some undeserving oil sheik, or Gordon Gekko??

What's a bumper pole?

It's like an electric telescoping antenna mounted in the bumper. It allows one-eyed people who have their seating position set so low they look under the top of the steering wheel while driving to parallel park without a spotter. I think.

All kidding aside, curb feelers can be very practical for people who are short or have poor vision or have back problems and don't want to park like a @^$$%^. If you don't have a car tha looks at least vaguely like OVERK1LLs picture, though, it looks funny and we're going to laugh. If you know you need them and you choose to use them instead of parking like a #%!@@5$%%'in %$@#$$!*#@( to avoid looking silly you should be applauded.
