In typical fashion, when I first read this I gleaned that you had discarded 550g in the last 50 years (11gm/yr).  That didn't seem like much.  After Pete posted I realized I had misread things.  Yes, I too am probably wasting lots of solder, not to mention copper wire.  I do save the thicker bits of wire, but I tend to throw out most of the thinner unstripped stuff.
