I couldn't find anywhere what they mean by 1%. If it's as you say, and an annual income of €4500 is enough to be considered as such, then I think it would be quite excessive.

I am a student and I have nothing, and I am richer than 28% of my country because I don't have debt.

the richest 1% of the world’s population

If you earn 45000€ a year, which in many countries is just a bit above average, then you are richer than 99% of people in the entire world.
