Express Trust Creation
01
The Problem: Why Traditional Trusts Fail
Most trusts don’t fail because trusts are ineffective — they fail because they are treated as static documents instead of living legal structures. Traditional trusts are often created, signed, and forgotten, with little education or guidance on how they must be operated over time. Without proper role separation, ongoing administration, and correct use, even a well-drafted trust can quietly lose its effectiveness. The issue is rarely the paperwork itself — it’s the absence of structure, process, and stewardship.
02
The Solution: The Citadel Trust™
The Citadel Trust™ was designed to address the structural weaknesses that cause traditional trusts to fail. Rather than relying on documents alone, it functions as a guided framework built on proper roles, clear posture, and ongoing administration. Wealth Guaranteed emphasizes education, correct use, and continuity so the trust remains effective long after formation. The result is a trust designed for durability, clarity, and long-term performance — not one-time filing.

Key Benefits
Built to Serve You Now and for Generations.
100% Privacy & Confidentiality
Your assets remain completely off the public record—no registration with any city, county, state, or federal agency is required. Only the Trustees and Grantor have knowledge of the trust details, ensuring unmatched discretion.
Common Law Jurisdiction
The Trust is built on Natural and Common Law foundations, shielding it from the reach of statutory (Admiralty) courts. Only courts with proper venue and jurisdiction can even begin to challenge it—raising the bar for any legal interference.
Bulletproof Asset Protection
Through the Impenetrable Trust Defense Strategy™, your assets are protected from lawsuits, divorces, bankruptcies, IRS levies, and property seizures. The structure diversifies and layers asset protection, making loss nearly impossible.
No Registration Required
The Trust remains a private contract, never recorded in public registries. This means it’s untraceable to external entities who may wish to investigate, challenge, or seize your wealth.
No Attorney Required
Unlike most statutory trusts, this Trust requires no legal counsel to set up or maintain. This removes recurring legal expenses and empowers the Trustee to operate independently and lawfully.
Contract Law Governance
Because it’s governed by the right to contract (under common law), the Trust is immune to legislative changes or statutory interference. It holds the same constitutional rights as a natural person.
Understanding the Structure of a Private Irrevocable Express Trust
Our Citadel Trust™ system is built on strategic roles and airtight legal foundations that ensure your assets are fully protected and 100% private. Here’s a breakdown of how it works:
🔹 Grantor (or Trustor)
The individual who creates the Trust. The Grantor sets the terms, purpose, and intent of the Trust and transfers ownership of assets into it. Once transferred, the assets are no longer legally owned by the Grantor
.
🔹 Private Irrevocable Express Trust
The legal vehicle that now holds and protects your assets. Governed by a private contractual agreement called an Indenture, this Trust operates independently from the state and federal statutory system.
🔹 Executive Trustee(s)
Hand-selected individuals (or entities) responsible for managing the Trust in accordance with the Indenture. They carry a fiduciary duty to protect the assets and follow the rules set by the Grantor. Trustees are not personally liable for Trust debts.
🔹 Exchangor
The person (often the Grantor or a third party) who transfers assets into the Trust. In exchange, they may receive Capital Interest Certificates, representing a stake in the Trust’s distribution rights—without direct ownership of the assets.
🔹 Beneficiaries
The individuals or entities who receive the benefit of the Trust's assets—either now or in the future—based on the terms outlined in the Indenture. Their access to funds can be strategically restricted to preserve wealth and maintain privacy.
Backed by Proven Case Law
Wealth Guaranteed’s Citadel Trust™ is not only powerful in design—it’s legally supported by landmark case law and historical precedent.
Notably, Navarro v. Lee (U.S. Supreme Court, 1980) reaffirmed the legal standing and independence of trustees acting on behalf of a trust, providing strong precedent for private trust autonomy. Additionally, The Rockefeller Trust cases and extensive legal research from sources like American Jurisprudence, Corpus Juris Secundum, and over 100 court cases have continuously recognized the legitimacy, privacy, and strength of properly constructed private trusts.
These legal foundations support our Impenetrable Trust Defense Strategy™, ensuring that your trust holds up under scrutiny and remains protected in even the most complex legal environments.
