Actually there is, when you pick your nose and ingest the bacteria filled mucus, it enters your gut where specialised cells pick up the bacteria. The bacteria is then exposed to your immune system and this leads to your body building up immunity in a controlled setting. So it actually helps to maintain a healthy immune status to all the bacteria out there.
So pick away my friend

No, there are no health benefits to it. What you will probably get is a staph infection because staph is present in everybody and if your immune system is down you will develop staph. It's a very unsanitary thing to do.
